Throughout the offseason, the Minnesota Timberwolves have had opportunities to upgrade their point guard position, both in the draft and free agency. However, they have opted to stand pat, which reflects a strong belief in second-year guard Rob Dillingham. Additionally, the Wolves' reported offer for Kevin Durant didn’t include Dillingham. With Mike Conley aging and Nickeil Alexander-Walker leaving, Dillingham is primed for a massive role in his second season.
Dillingham only played 10.5 minutes and appeared in 49 games as a rookie. However, Dillingham showcased his upside as a scorer and playmaker in his limited minutes.
