Rob Dillingham

Dillingham was selected by the Timberwolves with the No. 8 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. One of the most exciting offensive players in college basketball last season, Dillingham averaged 15.2 points, 3.9 assists and 2.9 rebounds in just 23.3 minutes per game. He also knocked down 44.4 percent of his 4.4 three-point attempts per game. At 6-foot-1 and 165 pounds, Dillingham is a bit undersized, but the Wolves are betting that he'll be able to add weight to his slight frame in order to handle the rigors of the NBA game. With Mike Conley and Anthony Edwards already in place in Minnesota, Dillingham will likely be deployed as a spark plug off the bench in Year 1, competing for minutes with Donte DiVincenzo and Nickeil Alexander-Walker. In Summer League, he averaged 13.6 points and 1.6 threes on 36/31/55 shooting, 7.6 assists, 4.2 rebounds, 1.0 steals, 0.4 blocks and 3.4 turnovers in 29.8 minutes. Dillingham's efficiency was poor in Summer League, but he showed off the speed, tough-shot-making ability and passing that should have Wolves fans and fantasy managers intrigued.
