Terrence Shannon Jr. Season Outlook: Bench Wing Depth

Terrence Shannon Jr. enters his third campaign positioned as Minnesota's secondary wing option behind superstar Anthony Edwards. With Donte DiVincenzo sidelined to start the year, Shannon should secure steady second-unit minutes across both wing spots. After focusing on finishing with his right hand this summer, the 26-year-old looks primed to build on his 12.0 minutes per game from last season.

Our models project Shannon for 18.2 minutes and 13.5 fantasy points per game across 71 contests. He offers efficient supplemental scoring, with our projections calling for 8.5 points per game on 39.1% three-point shooting. While Edwards commands primary usage, Shannon provides reliable floor spacing and energy off the bench.

Currently rostered in just 3% of fantasy leagues, Shannon is best suited as a deep-league reserve. His standard-league ceiling remains heavily limited behind Minnesota's established core, making him an opportunistic waiver wire monitor rather than a draft target.

Outlook Carter Bryant

Carter Bryant 2026-27 Outlook: Development Path Pinched by Veteran Depth

Entering his sophomore campaign at age 20, Carter Bryant faces a crowded forward rotation in San Antonio. The arrival of veteran Tobias Harris alongside starter Julian Champagnie leaves Bryant battling for secondary wing minutes. While observers continue to emphasize his developmental upside, he remains slotted as a depth-chart backup entering the regular season.

Our projections forecast modest growth, modeling 14.3 minutes and 11.4 fantasy points per game across 75 projected appearances. Within that reserve capacity, we anticipate 5.5 points and 3.1 rebounds per contest on 43.7% shooting from the field, keeping his standard-league scoring ceiling firmly capped.

Reflecting his limited initial role, Bryant's rostered rate has steadily declined down to 3%. He belongs on the waiver wire in standard formats to begin the season, though dynasty and deep-league managers should monitor his playing time in the event San Antonio prioritizes youth down the stretch.
