Beringer’s debut was everything the Wolves could have hoped for. Strong Summer League performances don’t always translate to the main league, but it was easy to see how Beringer’s quickness and his athleticism would fit in the NBA as he continues to learn a game he has only been playing seriously since 2021.

Joan Beringer turned in a tremendous debut with the Timberwolves, and the 17th pick earned praise from coach Chris Finch during the contest.

That's what the 18-year-old Frenchman, who the Wolves took with the 17th pick in this year's draft, can bring to the table. He's listed at 6'10" and 230 pounds, with a 7'4" wingspan and all kinds of leaping ability. Rim protection is one of his greatest strengths.
