Detroit Lakes, MN (KDLM) – The Minnesota Timberwolves begin their 2026 NBA Summer League schedule this week in Las Vegas, opening play Thursday, July 9th against the New Orleans Pelicans.
Tip-off is set for 2:30 p.m. Central Time at Cox Pavilion on the campus of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. The game will be broadcast on Amazon Prime.
Minnesota will play four games over the following week, with contests on July 11th against the Denver Nuggets, July 13th against the Portland Trail Blazers, and July 15th against the Indiana Pacers. Every team is guaranteed a fifth game, even those that don’t advance to the four-team Summer League playoff.
This year’s NBA Summer League runs July 9th through July 19th, with all 30 teams playing five games each. The top four teams advance to a playoff round, beginning with a semifinal doubleheader on July 18th.
The Timberwolves released their Summer League roster Sunday, though it’s expected to grow. Second-round draft pick Isaiah Evans was notably left off the list, likely because a series of NBA trades — including the one that sent the pick used to select him to the Brooklyn Nets in the Julius Randle deal — weren’t finalized until July 6th. Evans is expected to join the roster once that trade is officially complete.
The Wolves’ current 15-man Summer League roster includes:
- Damion Baugh
- Joan Beringer
- Trey Campbell
- Enrique Freeman
- Dajuan Harris
- Toby Harris
- Trey Kaufman-Renn
- Aidan Mahaney
- Chris Mantis
- Devin McGlockton
- Zyon Pullin
- Nate Santos
- Donovan Williams
- Jaylin Williams
- Rocco Zikarsky
Center Joan Beringer and 2025 second-round pick Rocco Zikarsky are expected to draw the most attention from Minnesota’s front office in Las Vegas. Forward Trey Kaufman-Renn, along with two-way players Enrique Freeman and Zyon Pullin, are also likely to see extended minutes.
Other notable names on the roster include Damion Baugh, a former TCU standout; Dajuan Harris, who starred at Kansas; Aidan Mahaney; and Nate Santos, who was productive for the Iowa Wolves in the G League last season.
