Timberwolves' Josh Minott: Career-best performance Wednesday
Minott ended with 13 points (5-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 21 minutes during Wednesday's 108-80 victory over the Clippers.
Minott logged more than 20 minutes in an NBA game for the first time in his career, and the second-year forward made the most of his minutes. He delivered career-high marks in points, rebounds and assists while making a huge impact off the bench. That said, Minott had appeared in just eight games prior to Wednesday's win and averaged only 6.4 minutes per game, so he's not likely to hover around the 20-minute-per-game mark all of a sudden.

Timberwolves' Josh Minott: Used sparingly in victory
Minott had one point (1-2 FT), one rebound and one block in eight minutes during Monday's 114-93 victory over the Hornets.
Minott slid into the rotation for just the second time this season, playing eight minutes of garbage time. He is typically only ever utilized when the scoreline is one-sided. There is no indication that his role is going to change moving forward.

Timberwolves' Josh Minott: Leads team with 18 points
Minott posted 18 points (7-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, a steal and a blocked shot across 22 minutes in Wednesday's 125-123 preseason loss to the Bulls.
One shouldn't read much into Minott's performance. The 2022 second-round pick is trapped on a crowded depth chart that won't give him many opportunities to move up. Although he shows promise and signed a new deal in the offseason, his participation will be limited.

Timberwolves' Josh Minott: Staying in Minnesota in 2024-25
Minott's $2.02 million contract for the 2024-25 season became fully guaranteed Friday, Dane Moore of 'The Dane Moore NBA Podcast' reports.
Minott has logged just 47 appearances with Minnesota through his first two seasons in the professional ranks, but he's posted impressive numbers with the G League's Iowa Wolves and is still viewed as a promising developmental piece for the organization. Though the Timberwolves are keeping him in the fold for the 2024-25 campaign, Minott may not be assured a larger role during the upcoming season. Reserves Kyle Anderson, Monte Morris and Jordan McLaughlin are the lone Timberwolves rotation players from this past season scheduled for free agency, and Minnesota may have already found some replacements in first-round draft picks Rob Dillingham and Terrence Shannon.

Timberwolves' Josh Minott: Stands out against Maccabi
Minott delivered 23 points (9-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, six assists and three blocks across 32 minutes in Tuesday's 138-111 preseason win over Maccabi.
Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch gave minutes to several players who are competing for the final roster spots, and there's no question Minott stood out with a strong display on both ends of the court while also co-leading the team in field-goal attempts. However, Minott has a tough road ahead of him to make the Opening Night roster, and it's not out of the question to imagine him opening the regular season in the G League instead.
