Scores 20 in 37 minutes Grimes contributed 20 points (6-10 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 3-6 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Saturday's 112-103 loss to Portland. Impact Starting his second straight game with RJ Barrett (ankle) sidelined, Grimes saw a monster workload and capitalized with his second-highest scoring game of the season. Even before Barrett's injury, the 2021 first-round pick had worked his way into a more consistent role, but on the whole he hasn't been productive enough to warrant holding in most season-long leagues. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Barrett's status heading into Week 18. If he misses the Knicks' final two games before the break, Grimes could be a reasonable streaming option.
