The effect on the court is a mess! The Timberwolves backcourt general has a completely negative impact on the team?
9:11pm, 15 May 2025【Basketball】
In a previous NBA Western Conference semi-finals, the Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the Golden State Warriors who returned to their home court 102-97. After this game, the Timberwolves, who won two consecutive victories in the series, widened the total score of the series to 2-1. Judging from the situation in these two games, the Timberwolves reversed the situation and they also had a certain advantage in this round of the series.
In this game, although the Timberwolves won the game, the team's substitute backcourt player Donte DiVincenzo's performance was actually not ideal. Divincenzo played 15 minutes and 49 seconds in the game, made 1 of 3 shots and 0 of 2 from outside the three-point line, scored 2 points and 2 rebounds, and had 3 turnovers and 4 fouls, with a plus-negative value of -14. Divincenzo has no touch on the offensive end, has seriously lacked scoring ability, and has not exerted his shooting ability. Divincenzo's performance in passing and organizing offense was also very unsatisfactory. He also made a lot of mistakes and wasted a lot of ball rights. On the defensive end, Divincenzo's performance was also a terrible level, and his defensive ability was not particularly outstanding. Divincenzo's effect on the court was a mess. Fortunately, he didn't play much time, and he did not have any negative impact on the team's victory.
In the NBA regular season this season, Divincenzo played a total of 62 games due to injuries in 82 games, averaging 25.9 minutes per game, averaging 11.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 0.3 blocks, and 1.6 turnovers and 1.8 fouls. He shot 42.2%, three-point shooting percentage 39.7%, and free throw shooting percentage 77.8%. In the playoffs, Divincenzo averaged 25.8 minutes in the first eight games, with averaging 7.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.4 blocks, 2 turnovers and 3.4 fouls, shooting percentage of 30.1%, three-point shooting percentage of 20.8%, and free throw shooting percentage of 80%.
Divinceno's performance throughout the playoffs was actually very bad. His offensive efficiency was a mess, and his three-point shooting percentage was even worse. His offensive effect was really bad. Divincenzo can indeed have a certain effect on the defensive end, but the negative impact he has on the team on the offensive end is also visible to the naked eye. In this game, Divincenzo did not play in the entire fourth quarter, but the Timberwolves finally won, which also shows that the team can also play better without Divincenzo. If Divincenzo cannot display his abilities next, his playing time may decline further.
