The Knicks waived Warren on Saturday.
Warren was unable to secure a regular-season roster spot despite spending training camp and the preseason with New York. If Warren clears waivers, he will likely join the Westchester Knicks of the G League.

Knicks' T.J. Warren: Inks Exhibit 10 with Knicks
Rotowire
Warren signed an Exhibit 10 contract with New York on Wednesday, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.
Warren's contract grants him a training camp spot with an opportunity to be converted to the standard roster. The 31-year-old hasn't been a consistent NBA contributor since the 2019-20 season, but the Knicks provide an interesting opportunity as a franchise thoroughly lacking wing depth at the moment.

T.J. Warren: Contract with Minnesota expires
Rotowire
Warren became a free agent Tuesday after his second 10-day contract with the Timberwolves expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Warren has spent the past few weeks with Minnesota, averaging 4.1 points and 2.3 rebounds in 14.0 minutes per game over seven appearances. He fell out of the rotation in recent games, but if the Timberwolves hope to retain him after his second 10-day contract expired, they'll have to sign him to a rest-of-season contract.

Timberwolves' T.J. Warren: Re-ups with Minnesota
Rotowire
Warren agreed to a second 10-day contract with the Timberwolves on Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
After Warren's second 10-day deal expires, he will have to sign a rest-of-season contract if Minnesota wants to retain him. The veteran forward is shooting just 14.3 percent on 1.8 three-point attempts per contest across his four appearances with the Timberwolves.

Timberwolves' T.J. Warren: Deal expires
Rotowire
Warren's 10-day contract with Timberwolves expired Saturday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Warren is eligible to sign a second 10-day deal with Minnesota but would have to sign for the rest of the season after that. The 30-year-old forward averaged 4.8 points and 2.0 rebounds in 16.0 minutes across his four appearances for the Timberwolves.

Timberwolves' T.J. Warren: Available to make debut Thursday
Rotowire
Warren will be officially available to make his Minnesota debut against the Pacers on Thursday, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
Warren signed a 10-day contract with the Timberwolves on Wednesday, and he'll be available right away. Warren should see minutes off the bench, but he's not expected to play a prominent role in his first game with his new team.

Timberwolves' T.J. Warren: Officially joins Minnesota
Rotowire
The Timberwolves signed Warren to a 10-day contract Wednesday.
Warren averaged 7.5 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 16.4 minutes during his last NBA stint in 42 appearances for the Nets and Suns in 2022-23. While it's unclear where Warren will fit into Minnesota's rotation, he should be available for Thursday's matchup with Indiana.

Timberwolves' T.J. Warren: Joining Minnesota via 10-day
Rotowire
The Timberwolves plan to sign Warren to a 10-day contract early next week, pending a physical, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Warren last played in the NBA during the 2022-23 campaign, when he started the season with Brooklyn before being traded to the Suns. In his prime years, the 6-foot-8 forward could score in bunches, but he's not a lock to be included in the rotation during his upcoming stint with Minnesota. The Timberwolves have needed forward depth all season, and that need has become more apparent with Kyle Anderson (knee) sitting out the past two games.

Suns' T.J. Warren: Rare appearance Friday
Rotowire
Warren amassed seven points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block over 26 minutes during Friday's 121-114 win over the Nuggets in Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Warren re-entered the rotation Friday, playing 26 minutes as the Suns went with a slightly deeper rotation. Despite the meaningful minutes, Warren managed just seven points, most of which came during the final quarter. With Chris Paul (groin) set to miss Game 4, Warren could remain in the rotation, at least for the short term.

Suns' T.J. Warren: Back at practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Warren (illness) was present during Wednesday's practice, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Warren missed the final three games of the regular season due to an illness, but his presence at practice suggests he's good to go for playoff action. Before he was sidelined, the backup wing posted 7.3 points and 4.1 rebounds in 18.3 minutes over his past eight appearances, but it's unclear what his role will be during the Suns' opening-round matchup against the Clippers.

Rotowire
Warren (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Clippers, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.
As expected, Warren has been downgraded from doubtful to out and will miss a third straight game due to an illness. He should have plenty of time to recover from the ailment before postseason play begins next weekend.

Suns' T.J. Warren: Unlikely to play in finale
Rotowire
Warren (illness) is doubtful for Sunday's tilt against the Clippers, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.
Warren has missed the past two games due to an illness and is expected to remain shelved for the finale. It's unclear if he'll have a significant role in the playoffs, but he's seen double-digit minutes in eight straight appearances.

Suns' T.J. Warren: Remains out Friday
Rotowire
Warren (illness) is out for Friday's game versus the Lakers, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Warren will miss his second straight game Friday due to illness. With the Suns' star Big 4 also out, Josh Okogie, Terrence Ross, Torrey Craig and Ish Wainright will likely receive increased roles. Warren's next chance to suit up is Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Clippers.

Suns' T.J. Warren: Out Thursday
Rotowire
Warren has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Nuggets due to an illness, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Warren typically logs minutes in the lower-teens, so his absence from the active roster won't make many ripples in fantasy hoops. His next chance to play will come Friday against the Lakers.

Suns' T.J. Warren: Plays 16 minutes Friday
Rotowire
Warren contributed four points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 16 minutes during Friday's 100-93 win over the Nuggets.
Warren has finally carved out a solid role with his new -- and old -- squad, averaging 8.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.5 steals-plus-blocks in 20.7 minutes over his past six appearances. However, when the Suns' starting lineup is fully intact, Warren's playing time and usage haven't been enough to guarantee him fantasy intrigue.

Suns' T.J. Warren: Limited role in loss
Rotowire
Warren tallied zero points (0-3 FG) and two rebounds in six minutes during Tuesday's 116-104 loss to the Bucks.
Warren is averaging 1.1 points and 2.0 rebounds in 6.4 minutes across his last eight appearances since being traded to Phoenix. Even with Kevin Durant (ankle) out, Warren has been unable to find much of a role. The 28-year-old forward shouldn't garner much fantasy interest.

Suns' T.J. Warren: Limited in Suns debut
Rotowire
Warren recorded five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal across seven minutes during Tuesday's 120-109 win over the Kings.
Warren played just seven minutes in his return to Phoenix, a figure that is almost certainly going to rise in the coming weeks. Fans will remember his performance from the bubble, and while he is certainly not the same player he was then, he can provide the Suns with a nice scoring punch off the bench. It's unlikely he sees enough time to have value outside of deeper formats, but even those in 12-team leagues should at least keep an eye on things moving forward.

Suns' T.J. Warren: Will be available Tuesday
Rotowire
Warren (recently traded) will be available for Tuesday's matchup against the Kings, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Warren was acquired by the Suns in the deal that landed them Kevin Durant (knee), but he wasn't able to suit up for last Friday's matchup against the Pacers. He's now presumably gotten a chance to practice with his new teammates and will be available to make his Suns debut versus Sacramento. Phoenix had to give up two key wing players and won't have Durant available for awhile, so Warren figures to garner a major role for his new squad moving forward.

Suns' T.J. Warren: Won't debut Friday
Rotowire
Warren (recently traded) won't play Friday against the Pacers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
The 29-year-old was traded from the Nets to the Suns on Thursday as part of a blockbuster deal that also sent Kevin Durant (knee) to Phoenix, but Warren won't be available for Friday's road game. However, the Suns return home to face the Kings on Tuesday, and it wouldn't be surprising to see Warren make his team debut at that point.
