Report: MIN, Ayo Dosunmu agree to 5-year deal

Clark’s production this past season didn’t differ much from the prior. While scoring, rebounding, and assisting at similar levels, he regressed as a shooter in his second NBA season, posting averages of 4.0 points, 1.8 rebounds and 0.6 assists in 13.1 minutes per game. The wing and guard rooms remain crowded in Minnesota with the reported acquisition of LaMelo Ball and the re-signing of Ayo Dosunmu. However, Clark’s three-year deal suggests the Timberwolves still value him and want him to remain in the nightly rotation.

After two seasons in Minnesota, Randle is headed back to the Big Apple, albeit a different borough. While he did struggle during the Timberwolves’ second-round series against San Antonio, the veteran forward had a productive 2025-26 regular season. In 79 games, Randle averaged 21.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.4 three-pointers, shooting 48.1 percent from the field and 80.2 percent from the foul line. With the Nets in the midst of a rebuild, it’s fair to wonder if they won’t look to move Randle to another team. He can provide reliable top-75 fantasy value, especially in points leagues. Staying in Brooklyn could raise Randle’s ceiling, as was the case with Michael Porter Jr. Still, fantasy managers would also have to worry about the possibility of his minutes decreasing late in the season. As part of the trade, Minnesota will receive the rights to the 33rd overall pick in this week’s draft. Randle’s exit means Naz Reid will start consistently, raising his fantasy ceiling, and it also gives the Timberwolves the financial flexibility needed to re-sign Ayo Dosunmu.

While he didn’t do much scoring in Game 6, Dosunmu did dish out nine assists in what could be his final appearance in a Timberwolves uniform. His play in Game 4 of the Denver series will go down in franchise history, and Ayo was clearly not playing at full strength in the second round. An unrestricted free agent this summer, Dosunmu should not lack suitors, including Minnesota. With Donte DiVincenzo (Achilles) sidelined, the Timberwolves could make retaining Dosunmu a priority. A return would make Ayo a must-draft player in standard leagues whose ceiling would be considerably higher than it was in Chicago.

While he shot the ball better on Tuesday than he did in Game 4, Dosunmu’s efforts weren’t enough to help Minnesota take the series lead. He’s started the last two games and that will remain the case for Game 6, with the Timberwolves’ season on the line. Overall, Dosunmu’s play throughout the postseason should raise his profile going into free agency this summer. And with Donte DiVincenzo (Achilles) set to miss significant time, re-signing Dosunmu may be a priority for the Timberwolves.

Fox’s ankle injury came during the third quarter of Game 4 when Minnesota’s Ayo Dosunmu dove for a loose ball and crashed into Fox’s foot. Fox was subbed out but eventually returned to finish the game. He’s struggled with his shooting through four games thus far and hasn’t been a major factor in terms of making plays for others. Still, his injury status is a big one to monitor ahead of Tuesday’s contest.

After coming off the bench in his return to action on Friday, Dosunmu moves into the starting lineup for Sunday night. As a result, Mike Conley will head to the bench and could fall out of the rotation entirely. With Dosunmu available, Conley played four minutes in Friday’s Game 3 defeat despite remaining in the starting lineup.

Dosunmu, who did not play in the series opener, was limited to 10 minutes in Game 2 due to a sore right heel. His return should give the Timberwolves a needed boost off the bench, but only if he’s able to play through the heel and calf issues.

Despite a strong start to the postseason, Dosunmu has encountered bad injury luck recently. After returning from a calf injury to play in Game 2, he was limited to 10 minutes and exited early with heel pain. If able to play on Friday, his potential as a scorer and quality defender has been proven repeatedly during his time with the Timberwolves. Terrence Shannon Jr. should remain in a big role if Dosunmu doesn’t take the floor.

Dosunmu missed Game 1 with calf soreness and left Game 2 after 10 scoreless minutes with right heel pain. The 26-year-old guard was ruled out in the fourth quarter with the game out of reach. Dosunmu will have Thursday to recover ahead of Game 3 on Friday.

Dosunmu missed Game 1 with calf soreness and is now dealing with a new injury. The 26-year-old guard is now officially questionable to return to Game 2 with right heel pain. He had no points in 10 minutes before leaving with the injury.
