Donte DiVincenzo Ruled Out for Knicks Match

Donte DiVincenzo has been ruled out for the Minnesota Timberwolves' game against the New York Knicks due to a sprained toe, marking his first absence of the season. This injury comes ahead of a highly anticipated return to Madison Square Garden, where he was expected to face his former team for the first time in the regular season since being traded. DiVincenzo had been performing well recently, averaging about 16 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists in his last 11 games after being moved to the starting lineup. His absence could lead to increased playing time for Mike Conley, who is expected to fill in as a starter. Meanwhile, Karl-Anthony Towns, who was also part of the trade, is questionable for the game due to a thumb injury. The Timberwolves are currently struggling with a 21-19 record as they prepare to face the Knicks, who hold a stronger 27-15 record.
