Rotowire
Shannon closed with 26 points (6-18 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 14-18 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Sunday's 132-126 victory over the Pelicans.
Shannon was inefficient from the field and failed to knock down a three-pointer, but he got to the charity stripe consistently and grinded his way to a team-best 26 points. Seeing heavy minutes of late, the 25-year-old has eclipsed the 20-point mark in each of the Timberwolves' past three games.

Timberwolves' Terrence Shannon: Logs 25 minutes in spot start
Rotowire
Shannon accumulated eight points (2-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-5 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 25 minutes during Saturday's 109-87 loss to the Pistons.
Shannon moved into the starting lineup, with Minnesota going deep into its rotation due to a number of injuries to its regular core. Given that Shannon had barely been in the rotation during the two previous games, there is no reason to think this move will stick, assuming the team can start to get healthy sooner rather than later.

Timberwolves' Terrence Shannon: Moves back outside of rotation
Rotowire
Shannon (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Friday in the Timberwolves' 127-117 win over the Warriors.
Shannon had appeared in each of Minnesota's previous four contests and averaged 7.8 minutes per game, but his spot in the rotation disappeared Friday while the Timberwolves welcomed Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) back from a one-game absence. Now at full health, the Timberwolves are likely to run out a nine-man rotation in most games, but Shannon appears to be the next man up to join the second unit if Minnesota is missing a player at any point.

Timberwolves' Terrence Shannon: Drops out of rotation
Rotowire
Shannon (coach's decision) went unused off the bench in Tuesday's 117-110 win over the Grizzlies.
After rejoining the Timberwolves following the All-Star break after a prolonged absence due to a left foot strain, Shannon had cracked the rotation in three of the Timberwolves' first four games of the second half. However, after being limited to just 10 total minutes over the latter two appearances, Shannon has since failed to see any run in two straight contests. Shannon's path to earning playing time has only become more blocked moving forward after new signee Kyle Anderson (14 minutes) entered the rotation Tuesday in his team debut.

Timberwolves' Terrence Shannon: Sees 18 minutes Sunday
Rotowire
Shannon contributed six points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT) over 18 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 135-108 loss to the 76ers.
Shannon had made a pair of appearances in the G League with the Iowa Wolves prior to the All-Star break, but he took the court Sunday with Minnesota for the first time since Dec. 25 following an extended absence due to a left foot abductor hallucis strain. The second-year wing had been left out of the rotation in the Timberwolves' first game out of the break Friday against the Mavericks, but Shannon was able to pick up some minutes Sunday with Rudy Gobert (suspension) and Naz Reid (foot) sitting out. Gobert will be back in action Tuesday in Portland, but it's not clear if Shannon will be able to stick in the rotation if Reid also returns for that contest.

Timberwolves' Terrence Shannon: To be re-evaluated in two weeks
Rotowire
Shannon underwent an MRI that revealed a left foot abductor hallucis strain and will be re-evaluated in two weeks, Charlie Walton of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
Shannon is set to miss an extended period due to a muscle strain in his foot, and he also missed nine consecutive games in November due to a bone bruise in his left foot. With the second-year swingman on the shelf once again, Jaylen Clark and Bones Hyland are candidates for a slight bump in playing time.
Shannon has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game against the Nuggets due to left foot soreness.
Shannon played 10 minutes and missed all three of his shot attempts, including two three-pointers, before being ruled out for the remainder of the game in the fourth quarter. He's seen a reduced role since Mike Conley returned to action, but Shannon has appeared in 14 straight games for the Timberwolves.

Rotowire
Shannon totaled two points (1-3 FG) in five minutes during Saturday's 109-106 victory over the Clippers.

The second-year swingman has averaged 6.1 points in just 10.7 minutes per game over seven appearances following a nine-game absence due to a left foot bone bruise, and he isn't guaranteed to see significant minutes unless a key contributor gets injured.
