Let go by Minnesota

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.
