The Philadelphia 76ers had a miserable 2024-25 season so one might not think there are many highlights from the season. However, this is the NBA and these guys are the best of the best so there is always something to look back on and take as a positive from the season.
Now is the time to look back at the season and some of the highlights the Sixers were able to come up with in what was an overall dim season.

Up next in the 2024-25 look back is Quentin Grimes who made a big impact right away after joining Philadelphia at the trade deadline. In 28 games for the Sixers, he averaged 21.9 points and shot 37.3% from deep, but on a March 1 night against the Golden State Warriors, he went nuclear.
Grimes scored a then career-high of 44 points on 18-for-24 shooting while knocking down six triples in a 126-119 win over the Warriors. He was phenomenal as Golden State was unable to come up with any answer for the 4-year man out of Houston.
Grimes will be a restricted free agent when that period begins on June 30, but one has to believe the Sixers will retain his services. He is still so young and has the ability to be that No. 1 scoring option when Philadelphia is missing the likes of Joel Embiid or Paul George in the future.
