Joan Beringer

Joan Beringer needs to play, Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said at practice: "it could be 14 minutes a night, it could be 24 minutes a night," depending on how he plays. He expects some inconsistency: live game reps are the biggest part of Beringer's development.

Joan Beringer is playing only at center for now, Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said; he'd like to try him with Rudy Gobert once other things are sorted. He said Beringer, who used to overcommit into fouls, now regulates his energy better, helped by Trey Lyles beside him.
