## Resource

The Timberwolves’ late-first-round pick Isaiah Evans, drafted for his shooting, now faces an uphill battle for minutes after the team’s blockbuster LaMelo Ball trade reshaped their roster. With a crowded guard/wing rotation featuring Edwards, Ball, and proven shooters like Clark and Green, Evans’ path to regular playing time is narrow — especially under coach Chris Finch’s preference for veterans. While injury call-ups might offer fleeting opportunities, a consistent role this season seems unlikely. His rookie year may be about development, not dominance, as roster shifts and growth could unlock his potential later.
