Donte DiVincenzo News, Rumors, Updates - Minnesota Timberwolves

Exits to locker room Saturday DiVincenzo exited to the locker room after sustaining an apparent facial injury in the second quarter of Saturday's game against the Hornets, Jack Borman of the Locked On Podcast N...

Impact DiVincenzo caught an elbow to the face and headed back to the locker room with 10:54 remaining in the second quarter. If the 28-year-old guard is unable to return, Jaylen Clark and Terrence Shannon are candidates for an uptick in minutes the rest of the way.

Fills in with 14 points DiVincenzo notched 14 points (4-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 116-115 loss to the Lakers.

Impact DiVIncenzo was Minnesota's choice to take Anthony Edwards' (hamstring) place in the starting lineup, and he had an efficient game while Julius Randle and Jaden McDanials enjoyed the spotlight. Additional support from Rob Dillingham and Bones Hyland should also populate this spot over the next couple of weeks, but DiVincenzo has a firm hold on the role for now.

Quiet in 20 minutes DiVincenzo chipped in seven points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, two blocks and two steals in 20 minutes during Wednesday's 118-114 win over the Trail Blazers.

Impact DiVincenzo has replaced Mike Conley as the starting floor general to begin the 2025-26 campaign, but he got off to a rough start Wednesday with six turnovers in 20 minutes. Mike Conley was just as quiet in 13 minutes, and it's unlikely the Timberwolves pivot away from DiVincenzo after just one poor showing. DiVincenzo is a strong per-minute fantasy producer in assists, steals and three-pointers, and he does have some solid appeal going forward if he holds onto this job.

Getting chance with starters DiVincenzo is starting Thursday's preseason game against the Knicks.

Impact DiVincenzo will get a chance to redeem himself after being held to three points, two rebounds, one assist and one block in nine minutes off the bench during Tuesday's exhibition against Indiana. He started Saturday's preseason opener, finishing with eight points and six assists in 12 minutes.

OCTOBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet in loss Tuesday DiVincenzo managed just three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block in nine minutes during Tuesday's preseason loss to Indiana.

Impact DiVincenzo shifted to the bench after starting the first game of the preseason, delivering an underwhelming performance. Since arriving in Minnesota last season, DiVincenzo has struggled to recapture the form he showed in New York. While it does appear as though Minnesota will go with Mike Conley as the starting point guard, DiVincenzo could certainly be tasked with playing closer to starter's minutes. The hope is that he can rediscover his best form as the Timberwolves make another push for a championship.
