Evans was waived by the Knicks on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The guard came to New York via trade around the draft, and the Knicks will now cut him loose just a few days into training camp. The former Cincinnati standout split last season between Golden State and Minnesota, appearing in 29 games and averaging 4.4 points, 1.4 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 14.4 minutes.

Evans has been traded, along with Omari Spellman and a future second-round pick, to New York for Ed Davis, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Evans has seen limited time in the league over the past two seasons, appearing in just 29 contests in 2019-20 with the Warriors and Timberwolves. Evans may likely start the 2020-21 campaign with New York in the G League if the Knicks remain to keep him.

Evans was transferred to the G League on Saturday, Dane Moore of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Evans will return to Iowa in order to get additional in-game reps. In six G League outings this year, the 22-year-old's averaging 6.8 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 21.9 minutes per game.

The Timberwolves recalled Evans from the G League's Iowa Wolves ahead of Monday's game against the Mavericks, Dane Moore of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Evans will join the team in Dallas to provide some extra depth on the wing while Allen Crabbe (personal) remains away from the team for a second straight game. Don't expect Evans to see any minutes Monday outside of garbage time, however.

Evans returned from the G League on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Evans has played just a single minute in the Wolves' three games since he came over in a trade from the Warriors. There's little reason to believe he'll play a significant role Friday against the Celtics.

Evans was assigned to the G League on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
It appears Evans won't be a regular part of the new-look Timberwolves rotation. He's appeared in four G League games this season, averaging 9.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.8 steals in 24.1 minutes.

Evans played the final minute and six seconds of Saturday's 142-115 win over the Clippers, accruing no statistics during his time on the floor.
EDGE Analysis
Evans may get the chance to push for a bigger role once he gets more practice time with the Timberwolves under his belt, but he found himself outside of coach Ryan Saunders' rotation in his Minnesota debut. The 2018 first-round pick looks like he'll be behind all of Malik Beasley, Josh Okogie, Jarrett Culver, Allen Crabbe and Jaylen Nowell on the Timberwolves' wing depth chart.

Evans is available to play Saturday against the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Evans is ready to go after coming over in a trade from the Warriors on Thursday. He averaged 4.7 points on 15.3 minutes per game with his former team, though it remains to be seen where exactly he fits into Minnesota's rotation.

Evans -- along with Omari Spellman and D'Angelo Russell -- was traded to the Timberwolves on Thursday in exchange for Andrew Wiggins, a 2021 protected first-round pick and a 2022 second-round pick, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Due to the limited options on the Warriors' roster, Evans had been garnering significant minutes this season, averaging 4.7 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 15.3 minutes. However, in joining the Timberwolves, Evans' role is likely to be reduced. Even in the deepest of redraft fantasy leagues, it's tough to imagine a reason to roster Evans. The Timberwolves' next game is Saturday versus the Clippers, but it's unclear if any of Evans, Spellman or Russell will be available for that contest.

Evans ended up with eight points (4-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt), four rebounds and four assists in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 129-88 loss to the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Evans produced a decent line for the second straight game, this after managing seven points, three dimes, three blocks, two boards and one steal in 26 minutes during Monday's win over the Wizards. With Alec Burks and Glenn Robinson being held out in advance of the trade deadline, Evans saw plenty of minutes once again in this one and could be in line for increased responsibility if Burks and/or Robinson are in fact dealt.
