During Rob Dillingham’s rookie season, he didn’t play much, averaging 10.5 minutes and 4.5 points across 49 games. However, this was largely viewed as a development season for Dillingham, whom the Minnesota Timberwolves traded up to draft with the No. 8 pick. With Mike Conley turning 38 before the 2025-26 season, paired with Dillingham’s dynamic skill set, he feels poised for a sizable role in the Wolves rotation.
Most recently, in summer league, Dillingham averaged 17.3 points and 6.5 assists. While it’s only summer league, this showcased Dillingham’s gifts as a three-level scorer and shifty playmaker.
