How Donte DiVincenzo could be a huge addition for the Timberwolves


I wanted to share this here as I thought it was a relevant topic by taking a look at Donte DiVincenzo's game and how he could be a great addition through the KAT trade.. I recently made a video looking at some areas where he excelled and should contribute right away. I was also interested to hear what others thought of Donte as the first guard off the bench. Even in that role, I could definitely see him closing some games. He's been an awesome shooter off the catch from three for a few years now, and is dangerous off movement. So given the attention Ant and now Julius Randle will get driving to the basket, looks will be there. The other thing I like is he does have some ability to create for himself and others, which is something the team seemed to lack in the postseason for stretches. Defensively I think he'll buy into the culture the Wolves have created, and he's solid against guys his size on the ball. Though he now has guys like McDaniels and NAW who have more length, that could defend bigger guards or wings.

  1. Donte definitely puts a lot of effort on defense. Especially back in Golden State when that’s what they needed from him.

  2. Dan Lebatard on his show yesterday said he heard DiVincenzo was being a malcontent behind the scenes because he was upset about the Bridges trade and having less playing time.

  3. I’m still processing my feelings about this trade, but I’m definitely excited about DDV.
