KBD was traded multiple times this summer, but he wasn’t able to make Minnesota’s final roster. He wasn’t going to play much anyway, so this won’t have any impact on fantasy basketball.

According to Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic, Keita Bates-Diop was not at Timberwolves practice on Saturday and appears to be the odd man out.

Minnesota is the lone team that has yet to reach the league max of 15 standard contracts, sitting at 16. Bates-Diop not practicing on Saturday may indicate that he’s the odd man out and will ultimately be waived. His status will not impact fantasy basketball, as KBD was unlikely to be in the rotation.

According to SNY’s Ian Begley, the Knicks have included Keita Bates-Diop in its three-team trade with Charlotte and Minnesota.

Due to Karl-Anthony Towns’s contract size, New York has some shuffling to make the acquisition official. As a result, the Hornets entered the deal as the third team and will acquire DaQuan Jeffries. According to SNY, the Knicks may also have to include Duane Washington Jr. and Charlie Brown via sign-and-trade deals to get the Towns trade over the finish line. Bates-Diop wouldn’t impact fantasy basketball in New York, which will likely remain true in Minnesota.

According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, Bates-Diop has chosen to opt to a one-year, $2.65 million deal that will keep him with Brooklyn for the 2024-25 season.

Bates-Diop spent 14 games with the Nets after being traded by the Phoenix Suns last season and played a minor role off the bench. He averaged just 1.6 points per game with Brooklyn.
