  • Timberwolves' Tristen Newton: Transferred to G League

    The Timberwolves transferred Newton to the G League's Iowa Wolves on Thursday.

    Newton has logged just one minute for the Timberwolves since being claimed off waivers on Jan. 3. However, the 23-year-old guard should continue to receive increased playing time in the G League.

  • Timberwolves' Tristen Newton: Joins parent club

    Minnesota transferred Newton from the G League's Iowa Wolves on Sunday.

    Newton will join the Timberwolves in advance of Monday's game against the Wizards and could make his NBA debut if Minnesota makes him active for the contest. The two-way rookie has made three appearances for Iowa since Minnesota claimed him off waivers from Indiana on Jan. 3, with Newton averaging 14.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.7 assists, 1.7 three-pointers and 1.0 steals in 33.6 minutes.

  • Timberwolves' Tristen Newton: Headed to Minnesota

    The Timberwolves claimed Newton off waivers from the Pacers on Friday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

    Newton had previously been playing on a two-way deal with the Pacers, but after being claimed by Minnesota, he'll now join Jaylen Clark and Jesse Edwards as the Timberwolves' two-way players. The rookie point guard previously made five appearances with the Pacers spanning just eight minutes, with most of his playing time coming in the G League. Newton will likely continue to see the bulk of his minutes in the G League with the Iowa Wolves in his new organization.

  • Tristen Newton: Waived by Indiana

    The Pacers waived Newton on Wednesday, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

    Indiana has decided to move on from Newton, who was signed to a two-way deal after being selected with the 49th overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. The 23-year-old guard from UConn had seen the bulk of his playing time in the G League this season but appeared in five games with the Pacers while playing eight total minutes.

  • Pacers' Tristen Newton: Scores 17 points in SL

    Newton logged 17 points (3-9 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 9-10 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals across 27 minutes of Saturday's 100-93 loss to the Cavaliers in Summer League.

    Newton took on a larger offensive role due to Johnny Furphy, Ben Sheppard and Jarace Walker sitting out. While he struggled from long range, Newton had no troubles getting to the basket and drawing fouls, attempting a game-high 10 free throws. A second round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Newton isn't expected to see regular action with the Pacers as a rookie.

  • Pacers' Tristen Newton: Drafted by Pacers in second round

    Newton was selected by the Pacers with the No. 49 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.

    The senior guard from UConn will add a defensive presence to a Pacers team that lacked it throughout the season. He should be a pesky on-ball defender to opposing guards with his 6-foot-3 frame, which includes a 6-foot-7 wingspan. Offensively, it's a mixed bag. Newton's three-ball is inconsistent, and while he's crafty around the rim, he's not much of a vertical athlete, which could cause issues in the NBA. It's not a guarantee he'll be an every night rotation player for Indiana, but he could see spot minutes in certain matchups.
