Yup. Grimes can do literally nothing and it’s worth it. We get to resign DJJ because of this trade.

Anything we get from Grimes is icing.

Grimes has plenty of potential to be a capable 3 and D guy you can plug in

You’ll probably like him

So far what's worked for us is having guys with amazing defense and meh offense, and then Luka force-feeds them open 3s so they shoot at least 30% and it works out.

Grimes has good defense but tends to disappear on offense outside of taking open 3s so that should work just fine
