Donte DiVincenzo Injury Report: Will Timberwolves' Guard Play Tonight Against the Thunder in Game 5 of the Western Conference Final?

The Minnesota Timberwolves will take on the Oklahoma City Thunder tonight in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals. Given the fact that the Thunder will enter the Paycom Center with a 3-1 lead, the Timberwolves will have to come up with something exceptional in this must-win contest. A double trouble is in front of the Timberwolves, as in order to survive and push the series to Game 6, not only they would have to outscore the Thunder tonight but also have to keep MVP of the season Shai Gilgeous-Alexander quiet. While the faith in Anthony Edwards will remain unbudged, and he will most likely pile up heavy numbers tonight, it is the contribution from the other players that will determine the fate of the series. Donte DiVincenzo appears as a name that can be entrusted with responsibility.  DiVincenzo has proved his worth in the past, and he could emerge as the silent hero tonight. As the shooting guard can play a vital role tonight, it is imperative to note whether he is available for the game or will sit out due to an injury. Let's take a look at the Minnesota Timberwolves injury report to draw clarity on the subject.
