Donte DiVincenzo Calls Out Tom Thibodeau and Trolls Him During Return to Madison Square Garden

Donte DiVincenzo made a dramatic return to Madison Square Garden after being traded from the New York Knicks to the Minnesota Timberwolves in a blockbuster deal. During the preseason game on Sunday, tensions ran high as DiVincenzo appeared to call out his former head coach, Tom Thibodeau, and engaged in a heated exchange with Knicks assistant Rick Brunson.

“I can’t finish, right Thibs,” DiVincenzo reportedly yelled at Thibodeau after making a contested layup. He further added, “That’s what happens when they let you run the show,” while at the foul line. The animosity between DiVincenzo and his former coach was palpable throughout the game.

In a post-game interview with The New York Daily News, DiVincenzo opened up about the challenges of adjusting to his new team and city. “The timing is obviously not the most ideal, so figuring out the living situation, getting the family comfortable. That’s like the first thing you try to do. Because the basketball kind of takes care of itself,” he said.

The trade saw DiVincenzo and Julius Randle heading to the Timberwolves in exchange for Karl-Anthony Towns, marking a significant shakeup for both teams. DiVincenzo, who was coming off the best season of his career, now faces the task of adapting to a new environment and teammates.

As the drama unfolds on and off the court, fans are eagerly awaiting further updates on Donte DiVincenzo and his journey with the Timberwolves. Stay tuned for more developments in this evolving NBA saga.
