Minott racked up three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and one assist across seven minutes during Wednesday's 124-94 loss to the Thunder in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.

EDGE Analysis

Due to Minnesota being blown out during Wednesday's season-ending loss, the team emptied the bench, allowing Minott to make just his fifth playoff appearance this season. Minott has a $2.19 million team option for the 2025-26 campaign.

Minott closed Tuesday's 140-139 double-overtime victory over the Nuggets with 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist in 12 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

This was Minott's first game logging double-digit minutes since Jan. 25. He's been used very sparingly this season, posting averages of 2.6 points and 1.1 rebounds in 6.3 minutes across 43 total appearances. He'll likely revert to an end-of-bench role after Donte DiVincenzo and Naz Reid served their one-game suspensions Tuesday.

Minott closed with five points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and one steal over 10 minutes during Saturday's 133-104 victory over the Nuggets.

EDGE Analysis

Minott cracked the rotation for the first time in four games, continuing to serve as nothing more than a depth piece for the resurgent Timberwolves. After a rocky start to the campaign, Minnesota has now won seven of its past 11 games. Although Minott has suited up on 27 occasions, he has averaged only 7.4 minutes per game.

Minott (illness) has been cleared to play Monday against the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Minott was labeled as a game-time call due to illness, but he's since been given the green light to suit up. He's averaging 4.6 points and 1.4 rebounds over 8.6 minutes in his last five appearances.

Minott (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Minott could miss a second straight game due to an illness. Donte DiVincenzo and Nickeil Alexander-Walker would see a slight uptick in minutes off the bench should Minott not be able to play Monday.

Minott (illness) will not play Saturday against the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

Minott will miss his first game since Dec. 13, but the guard will be day-to-day going forward. He's been a fringe rotation player for Minnesota with an average of 8.6 minutes across his last five games.

Minott (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

Minott is in jeopardy of missing his first outing since Dec. 13 due to the illness. The 22-year-old swingman has received little playing time at the NBA level, and his potential absence shouldn't affect any fantasy decisions. Over his last five games, Minott has averaged 4.6 points and 1.4 rebounds across 8.6 minutes per contest.

Minott closed with two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and one block across five minutes during Wednesday's 105-99 victory over the Mavericks.

EDGE Analysis

Minott was used sparingly again, continuing what has been a frustrating start to the season. Although he has played in more games than he has missed, Minott typically logs most of his playing time down the stretch when the game is done and dusted. Barring injuries to those around him, his role is unlikely to change moving forward.

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.

EDGE Analysis

Minott logged more than 20 minutes in an NBA game for the first time in his career, and there's no question 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.

Minott had one point (1-2 FT), one rebound and one block in eight minutes during Monday's 114-93 victory over the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

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.
