After spending his first two seasons in the league with the Houston Rockets, Nix is now gearing up for a fresh start as he heads to training camp with the Timberwolves.

During his time with the Rockets, the 21-year-old point guard posted respectable averages of 3.7 points, 1.6 rebounds, and 2.1 assists.
His performance in the 2022-23 season alone was marked by a field goal percentage of 34.2%.
The addition of Daishen Nix to the Timberwolves’ roster is an exciting prospect for both the player and the organization.
Nix, known for his talent and playmaking abilities, is set to join forces with rising star Anthony Edwards and other members of the Timberwolves, as they aim to make significant strides in the upcoming NBA season.
