Grimes (knee) will miss the remainder of the 2023-24 season, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Grimes has been sidelined since March 13, as he continues t battle lingering muscle soreness related to the knee injury he suffered back in January. Surgery will not be required, and it sounds like the guard is being extra cautious as he's eligible for an extension prior to next season. He'll finish the campaign with averages of 7.0 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.6 three-pointers.

Rotowire

Pistons' Quentin Grimes: Struggles from field in return
Rotowire
Grimes (knee) scored six points (1-8 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 21 minutes Monday in the Pistons' 114-97 win over the Hornets.
Grimes had missed the Pistons' previous four games due to right knee injury management, but he was thrust into a 20-plus-minute role in his return while Detroit was without a key rotational forward in Ausar Thompson (illness). Grimes failed to take advantage of the ample playing time, with the poor showing from the field and three-point range diminishing the overall impact of his stat line. Grimes could cede a few minutes if Thompson is available to play in Detroit's next game Wednesday versus Toronto.

Rotowire
Grimes (knee) is probable to play Monday versus Charlotte, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Pistons' Quentin Grimes: Downgraded to out
Rotowire
Grimes (knee) is unavailable for Sunday's game against Orlando, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.
Grimes missed the first nine games of February due to a right knee sprain, so it's less than ideal that he'll be forced to miss a contest due to an injury to the same knee. However, the Pistons could be exercising an abundance of caution with the 23-year-old trade-deadline pickup, especially with Marcus Sasser (knee) available to fill the void in the backcourt. Grimes' next opportunity to take the court comes Tuesday versus Miami.

Pistons' Quentin Grimes: Tagged as questionable
Rotowire
Grimes is questionable for Sunday's game against Orlando due to right knee soreness.
The fact that Grimes wasn't included on the Pistons' initial injury report before being added Sunday doesn't bode well for his chances of getting cleared prior to the 6 p.m. ET tipoff. After logging 20-plus-minute workloads in his first two games with the Pistons upon getting the green light to play last week, Grimes has been limited to 14 minutes in both of his last two appearances.
