Timberwolves' Rob Dillingham conundrum has a painfully obvious solution

Related Topics: Minnesota Timberwolves

Rob Dillingham's role with the Minnesota Timberwolves has been a point of contention among fans this season. The second-year guard has played 12.8 minutes, a slight increase from 10.5 minutes last season. This includes a four-game stretch without Anthony Edwards. Frankly, it doesn't seem like Dillingham's role is going to change much from his rookie season despite the Wolves having a clear point guard problem and the loss of Nickeil Alexander-Walker.

Undoubtedly, there are real concerns about giving Dillingham real minutes despite his offensive gifts. The main concern is that Dillingham is undersized and gets relentlessly hunted defensively.
