Assigned to G League

Plays well off bench
Beringer supplied six points (2-4 FG, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one block across eight minutes during Monday's 120-96 victory over the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
This game was over in a hurry, allowing Beringer to see some extra run in garbage time. Across nine regular-season appearances, Beringer holds averages of 2.0 points and 1.3 rebounds in 4.1 minutes per contest.
Nov 10, 2025
Sees six minutes
Beringer closed Sunday's 144-117 victory over the Kings with two points (1-1 FG) and one steal in six minutes.
ANALYSIS
Beringer made his seventh appearance of his rookie season Sunday, with this being his second highest minute total (6). As long as the frontcourt in Minnesota is healthy, Beringer is likely to just get the scraps off the bench.

Didn't play season opener
Beringer didn't see the floor during Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
Beringer is competing for minutes in a crowded and talented frontcourt, led by Julius Randle, Naz Reid and Rudy Gobert. It remains to be seen whether he'll get much time on the floor during his rookie campaign.

Bench role Wednesday
Beringer will come off the bench during Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
After starting the preseason finale, Beringer will be in the second unit. The team will run with Donte DiVincenzo, Anthony Edwards, Julius Randle, Jaden McDaniels and Rudy Gobert in the first five.

Posts 13 in preseason start
Beringer put up 13 points (6-7 FG, 1-3 FT), three rebounds, three blocks, an assist and a steal through 28 minutes in Friday's 126-110 preseason loss to the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Minnesota was without their entire projected starting lineup for this preseason contest, which paved the way for Beringer to start. The rookie was one of six players to reach double digits in scoring Friday, not to mention adding an impressive three blocks on the defensive end. Beringer will look to build upon this momentum into the regular season as he will try to carve out a role in the rotation behind Rudy Gobert and Naz Reid.
Oct 17, 2025
Starting vs. Philly
Beringer is in the starting lineup for Friday's preseason game against the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Beringer will get the start in the Timberwolves' final preseason game since the majority of the rotation will sit out this contest. The No. 17 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft has shown glimpses of his talent when given the chance, and he'll receive one last opportunity to impress the coaching staff, although minutes in the regular season will be hard to come by given how loaded the Timberwolves' frontcourt is.

Double-doubles in win
Beringer logged 10 points (5-8 FG), 10 rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 22 minutes of Monday's 134-74 preseason win over the Guangzhou Loong-Lions.
ANALYSIS
Beringer drew the start Monday with the Timberwolves sitting out the bulk of their rotation. The No. 17 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, Beringer looked solid at the Summer League and that momentum has carried over into the preseason. Minnesota's frontcourt is loaded, however, so minutes won't be easy to come by in his rookie season.
Oct 5, 2025
Posts 14 points in preseason loss
Beringer accumulated 14 points (6-8 FG, 2-3 FT), four rebounds and one block across 23 minutes in Saturday's 126-116 preseason win over the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Beringer finished as the Timberwolves' third-leading scorer and was one of five Minnesota players to reach double figures. The No. 17 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft will likely have a hard time carving out a steady role in Minnesota's rotation behind Rudy Gobert and Naz Reid, though he could slightly strengthen his case if he continues to impress in the preseason.

Flashes shot-blocking upside in SL
Beringer averaged 6.8 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 23.1 minutes per game over four Las Vegas Summer League appearances.
ANALYSIS
Beringer started each of his outings at center and flashed plenty of rim-protecting ability, also swatting 2.5 shots per contest during the exhibition action. The Timberwolves spent the No. 17 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft to land Beringer, but the 18-year-old rookie big man profiles as a very raw prospect. As long as both Rudy Gobert and Naz Reid are healthy, Beringer could struggle to carve out a steady role off the bench in 2025-26.
Jun 25, 2025
Heading to Minnesota
Beringer was selected by the Timberwolves with the No. 17 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.
ANALYSIS
Beringer boasts plenty of experience despite his age, as he has represented France at the youth level and posted decent numbers in Slovenia. The 18-year-old averaged 5.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks in 18.2 minutes across 54 appearances while helping Cedevita Olimpija win the 2024-25 Slovenian Basketball Cup. Beringer needs to fill out his frame and adjust to the physicality of the NBA to make an impact at the next level, but he should have a good mentor in Rudy Gobert, another Frenchman. Beringer figures to be a depth option in the frontcourt for Minnesota and isn't expected to make a major impact in fantasy as a rookie.
