Timberwolves are sending loud message Rob Dillingham can't ignore

In the Minnesota Timberwolves' last two games, Bones Hyland has played 36 and 34 minutes respectively, while Rob Dillingham has only gotten on the floor for 12 and 11 minutes in those same contests. It's becoming abundantly clear that the coaching staff believes Rob Dillingham still has some growing to do before he becomes a full-time staple in the rotation.

This becomes clear when you consider how similar Hyland and Dillingham's archetype are. Both are young, mostly unproven scoring guards who like to push the tempo and exhibit a lot of quickness off the dribble. There is certainly still a path for Rob to become a meaningful contributor on this team, but it appears Chris Finch and his staff still want to see more from him before they elevate him above Bones.
