Returning to bench Sunday Shannon is not in the Timberwolves' starting lineup against the Suns on Sunday.
Impact Shannon made his first career NBA start Friday against the Jazz and finished with 17 points, five assists, four rebounds and one block over 28 minutes. He'll retreat to the bench Sunday due to Anthony Edwards (calf) returning from a one-game suspension.

Scores 17 points in first NBA start Shannon finished Friday's 117-116 loss to the Jazz with 17 points (7-16 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one block across 28 minutes.
Impact Shannon made his first-career NBA start Friday in part due to the suspension of Anthony Edwards. The rookie first-round pick finished with a solid stat line and connected on a season-high three three-pointers. With Edwards serving his one-game suspension, Shannon will likely retreat to the bench for Sunday's game against Phoenix.

First-career start Friday Shannon is in the Timberwolves' starting lineup against the Jazz on Friday.
Impact Shannon has played at least 19 minutes off the bench in each of his last six games, and he's coming off a career-high 25-point performance against the Lakers on Thursday. Over that six-game span, the rookie first-round pick has averaged 13.2 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists over 24.2 minutes per contest while shooting 53.6 percent from the field. Shannon will make his first-career NBA start Friday -- in part due to the absence of Anthony Edwards (suspension) -- while Jaylen Clark retreats to the bench.
MARCH 1 • ROTOWIRE
Records career high in loss Shannon posted 25 points (9-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds and two assists across 29 minutes during Thursday's 111-102 loss to the Lakers.
Impact Shannon logged a career-high mark in points, receiving double-digit minutes for the eighth consecutive contest. The rookie first-round pick has accumulated all four of his double-digit scoring outings over the club's last six matchups, during which he has averaged 13.2 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 24.2 minutes per game. With Anthony Edwards having been suspended for Friday's game against Utah, Shannon could see an uptick in playing time.

First career double-double Monday Shannon accumulated 17 points (7-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 29 minutes during Monday's 131-128 overtime victory over the Thunder.
Impact The 27th overall pick in the 2024 Draft recorded his first career double-double and set a new career scoring high as he continues to take advantage of injuries in Minnesota's frontcourt. Over the last five games, Shannon is averaging 10.8 points, 5.0 boards, 2.4 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.6 blocks in 23.2 minutes a contest, but he'll return to the end of the bench once Julius Randle (groin) and Rudy Gobert (back) are cleared to return to the lineup.
