Rob Dillingham, selected 8th overall in the 2024 NBA Draft by the Minnesota Timberwolves, had a limited rookie season. Playing only 10.5 minutes per game across 49 appearances, he averaged 4.5 points, 1.0 rebounds, and 2.0 assists, and saw minimal action (16 minutes) in three playoff games.

While the departure of Nickeil Alexander-Walker led to speculation that Dillingham and Terrence Shannon Jr. would have larger roles in 2025-26, trade rumors have surfaced. On a podcast, Bill Simmons and Nate Tice discussed the possibility of Dillingham being used as trade bait, especially noting Shannon Jr.'s development and the Timberwolves' "win-now" mentality.

The article questions whether Minnesota would trade the 8th pick after just one year, particularly after giving up significant future assets (a 2030 pick swap and an unprotected 2031 first-round pick) to acquire him. It notes that the 2024 draft class is considered weaker than usual, potentially diminishing Dillingham's perceived value as an 8th pick.

Minnesota's win-now focus means they could use their taxpayer mid-level exception to sign a veteran point guard that coach Chris Finch might trust more, such as Malcolm Brogdon, Cory Joseph, or Delon Wright. If the Wolves sign another point guard, trading Dillingham becomes more plausible. He could hold value for rebuilding teams seeking young talent, potentially allowing the Timberwolves to acquire a player who contributes immediately to their championship aspirations.
