US EditionQuentin Grimes Scores 31 Points to Lead Philadelphia 76ers Past Portland Trail Blazers
Quentin Grimes' 31 points led a short-handed Philadelphia 76ers to victory despite missing key players and Portland's poor 32.7% three-point shooting.
- In Philadelphia on Sunday, Quentin Grimes scored 14 of his season-high 31 points in the fourth quarter to lead the 76ers past the Trail Blazers 109-103.
- The Sixers, short-handed after injuries, played without Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Kelly Oubre Jr., forcing Philadelphia 76ers bench and role players to absorb bigger minutes and scoring responsibility.
- Holding a 101-87 lead with 5:34 left, Portland answered with a 10-0 run as part of a late comeback attempt, after leading 54-53 at halftime, helped by nine points from Edwards.
- Following the final sequence, VJ Edgecombe's jumper at 1:53 and Edwards' steal-and-slam at 1:20 helped Philadelphia seal the win; the 76ers open a three-game trip in Denver on Tuesday.
- Deni Avdija led Portland with 25 points, Jerami Grant added 20, and Donovan Clingan contributed 11 points and 15 rebounds.
