He is healthy, but he is not in the best shape. He is step slow in defense by his standards in situations where normally he would be terror in defense.

Note how DDV is playing as bigman, rotates and protects the rim. Looks very "Boston like"

Since returning from injury, DDV is 15-4-4, shooting over 50% from three, shooting more than 8 per game, and a +- of more than 12 ppg.

This was the third season in a row DiVincenzo shot .397 or better on 3-pointers.....for three different franchises.

Great season for DDV. And he is fresh for the PO.

His hustle and energy are very valuable for our bench unit.

Donte has made some absolutely massive plays on defensive end...infact, he probably has been better defensively than offensively this series.

This is why you need a dog like DDV. And Reggie is ridiculous with his commentary.

I wonder if either side is interested in discussing an extension.

All MIN need is to establish offensive flow. Once it happens - watch out for DDV, Reid and McDaniels
