I always thought is DDV had a similar Josh hart impact, it would be hard to not start him.But DDV hasn’t looked great and there’s really nobody else besides IQ that Thibs would start. And I believe Thibs like IQ in the roll hes in now. And maybe with grimes, he rather keep his confidence up by starting him, but finishing with IQ.
If RJ is back, would love to see how RJ and hart looks in that starting unit replacing grines. OR maybe EF gets his starting roll back from the person that sent him to the bench originally.
Grimes is greatly underappreciated. He is not a finished product and does not get to touch the ball much at all because he plays with the starters but he brings invaluable things that especially this team needs.
Grimes seems to be an impact player even when the eye test looks like he's just blowing open shots and layups. When he was put into the starting lineup last year it changed the course of this team dramatically. Him and Mitch is a formidable defensive duo.
