Rob Dillingham becomes even more important with DiVincenzo's recent injury

Recently, it was announced that Minnesota Timberwolves guard Donte DiVincenzo is set to miss EuroBasket due to a toe injury. It’s unclear if DiVincenzo will miss time in the regular season due to this injury. Regardless, given this is DiVincenzo’s second toe injury this year, it’s clearly a recurring problem. Notably, DiVincenzo missed 19 games with a toe injury this past season.

Second-year guard Rob Dillingham was already primed for a bigger role with Nickeil Alexander-Walker leaving in free agency and Mike Conley aging. Now, after DiVincenzo’s injury, Dillingham’s role will be even more crucial.
