The Knicks have announced (Twitter link) that starting shooting guard Quentin Grimes will sit out the fourth game of their ongoing series against the Cavaliers. due to a right shoulder contusion.
Grimes initially departed Game 3 in Madison Square Garden on Friday after injuring his shoulder and did not return.
New York adds that reserve wing Josh Hart will start in Grimes’ stead for the team’s second game in its home arena.
Per Fred Katz of The Athletic (via Twitter), Grimes did not join the Knicks for his on-court warmup ahead of today’s contest after the team initially referred to him as a game-time decision.
The 6’5″ Grimes, a second-year wing out of Houston, had been struggling offensively across his first three postseason bouts. He’s averaging just 3.7 PPG on .182/.111/.857 shooting splits, along with 3.3 RPG, 1.0 APG, 1.0 SPG and 0.7 BPG.
That output marks a far cry from Grimes’ regular season output in 2022/23. In 71 games, he logged 11.3 PPG on .468/.386/.796 shooting.
