It was about this time last year that the Timberwolves needed to turn to Nathan Knight off their bench. With a team down several players because of COVID-19, the Wolves turned to Knight, who was then on a two-way contract.
He helped them get through a two-week period as the rest of the team healed.
This season, Knight, a forward/center, is buried even deeper on the depth chart because the Wolves have Karl-Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert to play center and then Naz Reid to fill in as their backup.
