Knight closed with 17 points (7-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds and three assists in 16 minutes during Sunday's 124-120 loss to the Bulls. Knight hadn't appeared in any of the last five games, but he saw increased work in the regular-season finale since the Timberwolves leaned on their bench players ahead of the play-in tournament. The 24-year-old is unlikely to be part of the team's rotation during the play-in tournament.

Knight totaled 33 points (11-21 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT), 12 rebounds, four blocks, two steals and one assist in 35 minutes during Friday's 107-103 win over the Oklahoma City Blue. Knight completely dominated during his first appearance with Iowa this season, finishing with game highs in points, rebounds and blocks. Shortly after the contest, he was transferred back to the NBA club.

Knight was transferred to the Timberwolves on Friday. Knight finished Iowa's 107-103 win over the Oklahoma City Blue with a game-high 33 points and 12 rebounds. He hasn't played double-digit minutes at the NBA level since Jan. 3, so it's unlikely he garners a big enough role to be fantasy relevant during his stint with Minnesota.

Knight was transferred to the G League's Iowa Wolves on Thursday. Knight had been with the parent club since late December, but he didn't see the floor in any of the last eight games. He should see more run in the G League after he averaged 3.1 points and 2.1 rebounds in 6.9 minutes per game across 28 appearances with Minnesota to begin the year.

Knight contributed 20 points (8-11 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 29 minutes during Monday's 108-103 win over the Celtics. Knight was recalled from the G League last week and his first start couldn't have gone any better, as he missed just three shots en route to posting a career-high scoring figure while also ending with a double-double. Minnesota is missing its top three centers due to the health and safety protocols, so Knight should remain in the starting five for at least a few more games.
