Rookie Timberwolves guard Rob Dillingham, who has already been out for his team’s last three games with an ankle ailment, has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 right lateral ankle sprain, the team has announced in a press statement.
According to the Timberwolves, the lottery pick will be on the shelf for the an additional one-to-two weeks. He is set to be reassessed in one week.
Minnesota traded to acquire the draft rights to the 6’1″ guard, the No. 8 pick out of Kentucky, this summer.
Through 15 games with the Timberwolves, he has played relatively sparingly. The 20-year-old is averaging 8.5 minutes per night across 15 contests. In that time, he’s scoring 3.7 points per game on 45.1% shooting from the field and 42.9% shooting from long range. He’s also chipping in 1.7 assists per game.
At 17-16, Minnesota is currently the Western Conference’s No. 8 seed. Losing a deep-bench player like Dillingham shouldn’t impact the Timberwolves significantly in the short-term, but he still has exciting long-term upside.
Thunder vs Knicks …….
Good game so far. Towns getting NO calls
Woooo Hoooo ……
Knicks on a 15-6 run up 5. Oh Yeaaaahhhh
Thunder are a small team without IHart and Chet.
Have big guards and wings. No real PFs except Chet. The other Williams maybe
Towns not getting calls. Little guys just beating up on him. I’ll never understand a big. When he goes out to get ball. Instead of posting or reposting lower. . Not putting IHart on KAT. He’s coming from weak side for D on KAT. Knicks showing who they are. Giving OKC their own medicine lols ……..
Yeeeessss come get some !!!!! NYK
SGA is a baaad man…..
KAT with 20 Rebs. Telling you Thunder small
Thunder playing now. Good game
Thunder are small. But they got numbers. Only two players played major mins. Knicks bench exposed today. Still in a 7 gm series. Thunder will need Chet.
Thing about Thunder. Such a young team. Still are growing as players and team. Deep talent.
Coming to MSG next Friday ……
McBride will be back. Thunder play numbers. Wear you out really. They share the ball. IMO SGA has to score big to play major. Need to at least control him. Keep him under 24. Had 33 tonight. Good comeback by Thunder.
Wemby with 35, 18, 4
Jokic with 41, 18, 9
Spurs 113 vs Nuggets 110
