2024 Fantasy Outlook
The No. 27 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Shannon wasn't afforded many opportunities in Minnesota. He ended up with just 32 regular-season appearances to his name with averages of 4.3 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists while shooting 48.2 percent from the field and 35.5 percent from long range in 10.6 minutes per game. The Timberwolves had a quiet offseason, but they did lose a key rotation piece in Nickeil Alexander-Walker. Rob Dillingham and Shannon are two candidates to soak up some of those. Shannon certainly did his part during the Summer League, putting up 22.7 points, 6.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 3.3 three-pointers and 1.7 steals in three appearances. Shannon is currently penciled in as the backup small forward behind Jaden McDaniels, and he's typically a high-minute player for the Timberwolves. Shannon does have some intrigue, but he's only on the radar in deeper formats until his path to minutes becomes a bit clearer. Read Past Outlooks

Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

From Chicago, IL, Shannon played for Lincoln Park in high school but didn't have any D1 offers, so he reclassified and transferred to IMG Academy where he thrived en route being a consensus four-star recruit. He originally committed to DePaul before switching to Texas Tech. He was named to the Big 12 All-Freshman team but didn't show drastic improvement in his final two seasons as a Red Raider before moving to Champaign. Shannon's final collegiate season was interrupted in December after being suspended indefinitely by Illinois. He was reinstated in January after the school's investigation ended with insufficient evidence and was allowed to finish the 2023-24 campaign. Shannon was named first-team All-Big Ten, third-team All-American and was the 2024 Big Ten Tournament's Most Outstanding Player, as he led Illinois to a championship win over Wisconsin. He averaged 23 points per game on 57/36/80 shooting splits for the season and dropped 34 on the Badgers. Shannon is at his best when he's going downhill in transition. When defenders give him space, he's more than capable of knocking down open looks off the dribble. At 6-foot-6, Shannon has the size and athleticism to guard multiple positions, and he has great defensive instincts, though he tends to take too many chances in the passing lanes. Shannon is a gifted offensive player, and that should translate to the NBA, but he may need to refine his game before becoming a prominent player. At 23 years old, he's older than most prospects in his class, but that doesn't mean he can't make strides over the next few years. Shannon is a couple of inches taller than guys like De'Aaron Fox and Vince Williams but may have just as much offensive upside as those players. However, Shannon isn't a natural point guard, so Kelly Oubre Jr. may be a more just comparison.

Remains without timetable

January 19, 2026
Shannon (foot) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
Shannon is still recovering from a left foot abductor hallucis strain and is without a clear timetable for a return to action. The second-year swingman should be considered week-to-week until the Timberwolves offer an update on his progress.

Shannon has been mentioned as a candidate to leave the Timberwolves in a potential trade for Coby White, according to Joe Cowley of The Chicago Sun-Times.
