Hamilton signed with Spanish team Valencia Basket, Sportando reports.
Hamilton spent last season with the Heat and Timberwolves. He earned major playing time down the stretch with the Wolves due to injuries before succumbing to severe concussions. After the All-Star break, he was one of 13 players to average at least 1.0 assist, 1.0 steal, and 1.0 block per game. The 7-footer spent his first season out of college playing overseas and earned D-League All-Star honors during the 2013-14 season.
Wed Jul 1 201518:06Hamilton did not receive qualifying offer from Timberwolves
Hamilton did not receive a qualifying offer from the Timberwolves, making him an unrestricted free agent, NBA.com reports.
Hamilton played well for the Timberwolves as an injury replacement this season, but with Karl-Anthony Towns drafted No. 1 this summer and Nikola Pekovic, Gorgui Dieng, and Anthony Bennett still on the team, there's little-to-no room for Hamilton in the frontcourt.

Hamilton spent time with three different teams in 2014-15, ending the season with the Timberwolves, for whom he averaged 9.0 points and 5.1 rebounds in 17 contests.
Hamilt started the season in Miami, where he played 24 games, making five starts, while the team fought through numerous injuries. While he was a dependable end-of-the-bench player, Hamilton was ultimately expendable, and he was sent to New Orleans as part of a deadline deal. Hamilton was ultimately waived by the Pelicans before appearing in a game, and the Timberwolves claimed him less than two days later. With Minnesota ravaged by frontcourt injuries down the stretch, Hamilton saw an expanded role, averaging nearly 25 minutes per game. His future is unclear, however, as his contract entails a $1.5 million qualifying offer for next season.

Hamilton stuffed the stat sheet Friday against the Magic, posting 14 points, nine rebounds, two assists, two steals, and one block in 38 minutes of action.
Hamilton got the start over Gorgui Dieng and did not disappoint. He's been slowly ramping up his performances over the last four games, posting 11, 11, 13, and 14 points, respectively. His ability to contribute in rebounds, steals, blocks, and threes pushes his value to standard league territory.
Thu Apr 2 201517:23Hamilton will likely continue to start with Gorgui Dieng ruled o...
Hamilton will likely continue to start with Gorgui Dieng ruled out Friday against Orlando.
Dieng remains in the league's concussion protocol, and with Nikola Pekovic (ankle) ruled out for the season, Hamilton remains the Timberwolves' lone option at center. Expect him to notch another start Friday against Orlando, and he'll likely be joined in the frontcourt by Adreian Payne.

Hamilton will get the start Monday against the Jazz.
Gorgui Dieng (illness) is being held out and Nikola Pekovic continues to sit with an ankle issue, so Hamilton will get the start up front and will likely be joined in the frontcourt by Adreian Payne.

Hamilton (head) will be available Wednesday, Andy Greder of the St. Paul Pioneer-Press reports.

Tue Mar 24 201517:09Hamilton (head) questionable for Wednesday's game against Lakers
Hamilton (head) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers.
Hamilton visited a specialist Monday, as he hasn't felt well since taking a knee to the head last week. The Timberwolves have no incentive to rush any of their injured players back, so don't be surprised if Hamilton misses another game. Of course, if he is able to suit up, Hamilton could see significant playing time due to the slew of other injuries affecting his teammates.
Mon Mar 23 201520:12Hamilton traveled to Rochester
Hamilton traveled to Rochester, MN on Monday in order to see a specialist with the hopes that he'll receive clearance to play after taking a knee to the head last week, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
This is the first mention that Hamilton may be dealing with a head injury, as he's missed the past three games due to an unnamed illness. If he's cleared, he would be in line for a bounty of minutes due to the absences of Kevin Garnett (knee) and Nikola Pekovic (ankle).
