2023 Fantasy Outlook
Minott appeared in only 15 games during his rookie season, averaging 3.1 points and 1.7 rebounds in 6.4 minutes per game. Given he is buried on the depth chart, there is no reason to think his role will increase during the 2023-24 season. He remains a raw prospect, requiring time to prepare his body and mind for the rigors of an NBA season. Outside of dynasty formats, there is no reason to consider Minott as a draftable player.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Eye-catching numbers
FMinnesota Timberwolves
July 20, 2023
Minott averaged 16.4 points on 46.4 percent shooting from the field, 5.6 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 2.4 steals-plus-blocks per game in five Summer League starts for the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Minott has rare upside. His fluidity and movement skills at his size make him a unicorn-esque player. However, the two blemishes of Minott's Summer League were three-point shooting and overall shot selection. He hit just 29.2 percent of 2.9 threes per game in the G League last season, and he shot 2-for-16 at Summer League. The jumper is raw, but there's a lot to like.
See All NBA Rumors
2022 Fantasy Outlook
A one-and-done at Memphis, Minott was selected with the No. 45 pick in the 2022 Draft and dealt to the Timberwolves. As a freshman, the 6-foot-9, 196-pound forward averaged 6.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 1.5 combined steals-plus-blocks in 14.5 minutes. Right now, Minott is more potential than production. He's an elite athlete, which has gotten him this far, but he's not a shooter, can't really handle the ball and is too skinny to be imposing defensively. So expect time in the G League for Minott, who seemingly needs to spend more time on a basketball court with some professional direction and skill development to turn into a rotation player in the NBA.
