  • Keita Bates-Diop: Let go by Minnesota
    By RotoWire

    The Timberwolves waived Bates-Diop on Monday. Bates-Diop joined Minnesota as part of the blockbuster deal that sent Karl-Anthony Towns to New York in exchange for Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo. Bates-Diop was Minnesota's final cut to reach the 18-man threshold before the regular season. Given the veteran's track record, he should be an option for any team that suffers early-season injuries or needs a spark defensively.

  • The Knicks traded Bates-Diop (shin) to the Timberwolves alongside Julius Randle (shoulder) and Donte DiVincenzo in a three-team deal that also sent DaQuan Jeffries to Charlotte, Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic reports. Bates-Diop was traded from the Nets to the Knicks earlier this offseason but will now return to Minnesota, where he started his NBA career in 2018-19. Bates-Diop will likely compete for depth minutes in Minnesota's forward rotation.

  • Knicks' Keita Bates-Diop: Dealt to Knicks
    By RotoWire

    The Nets are trading Bates-Diop (shin) and Mikal Bridges to the Knicks in exchange for Bojan Bogdanovic, Shake Milton, four unprotected first-round picks, an unprotected pick swap and a second-round pick, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Bates-Diop averaged 3.7 points and 2.1 rebounds in 12.5 minutes across 53 regular-season appearances between the Nets and Suns in 2023-24. With OG Anunoby (hamstring), Mikal Bridges, Julius Randle (shoulder) and Josh Hart all featuring ahead of Bates-Diop in the forward rotation, he will likely compete for depth minutes.

  • Bates-Diop (shin) exercised his $2.65 million player option Monday for the 2024-25 season, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. This is an expected move for Bates-Diop. The forward made just 14 appearances for the Nets last season, averaging 1.6 points in 4.9 minutes per game. Bates-Diop missed the end of the season with a right shin stress reaction, but he's expected to be healthy entering training camp.

  • The Nets announced Wednesday that Bates-Diop (shin) will miss the rest of the season, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports. Bates-Diop was slated to miss a second consecutive game Wednesday due to a right shin stress reaction, and he underwent a procedure to address the issue. While he'll be sidelined for the remainder of the year, he's expected to resume on-court activity in approximately one month, so it seems unlikely that the issue will impact his availability for the start of next season. Over 53 appearances between the Suns and Nets this year, he averaged 3.7 points and 2.1 rebounds in 12.5 minutes per game.
