Minnesota Timberwolves Waive Veteran Wing
The Minnesota Timberwolves are sitting at 16-14 after 30 games, and honestly, it’s been a bit of a letdown so far. That said, there’s still plenty of basketball left to turn things around. Their latest win might be just the boost they needed, especially since they pulled it off after being down 16 points with just five minutes to go.
Today, the Minnesota Timberwolves front office made a move. They are parting ways with a veteran wing who hasn’t brought much to the table lately.
Minnesota Timberwolves waive PJ Dozier
The Timberwolves announced that they’re waiving PJ Dozier, who has had quite the journey through the NBA and G League. Dozier has played for several teams, including two stints with the Iowa Wolves, and was signed by Minnesota this summer.

PJ Dozier saw action in nine games for the Timberwolves this season, mostly during garbage time. He averaged just 0.8 points, 0.6 rebounds, and 0.6 assists per game during his limited minutes.
Dozier’s basketball journey has been anything but ordinary. After going undrafted out of South Carolina, he kicked off his NBA career with the Oklahoma City Thunder, playing just one season before moving on to the Boston Celtics. Following his time in Boston, Dozier found his stride with the Denver Nuggets, where he’s had the most success in his career so far.

He went on to play for the Nuggets from 2019 to 2022. During the 2020 season, he started six games, logging an average of 21.8 minutes and 7.7 points per game. He became an important piece of the Nuggets’ rotation that year.
He was traded, made his way to the Timberwolves, and now he’s been waived. Hopefully, he’ll land with a new team soon.
