The NBA Summer League games offer players the chance to gain valuable court time as they strive to secure a spot in the team's main rotation. During Thursday's game in Las Vegas, Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch and majority owner Alex Rodriguez were among those on hand to witness the team's performance.
The shortest offseason in sports belongs to the NBA, as things move very quickly following the end of the season. The Oklahoma City Thunder just won the NBA Finals, with the draft taking place just three days later.
Finch expressed a desire to expand his rotation and explore the youth on his roster a bit more fully. We can expect plenty of Terrence Shannon Jr. next season, but the real swing piece for Minnesota's success — a player whose production (or lack thereof) could change the trajectory of the Wolves' season — is Rob Dillingham.
As the Minnesota Timberwolves prepare for the NBA Summer League games, the team's latest draft picks are getting a chance to connect with their new teammates. In some cases, they're learning how good these guys are and having to step up to prove themselves.
