Top Naz Reid News

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Back to bench

    Reid isn't starting Friday's game against the Hawks.

    Reid will retreat to a bench role due to the return of Karl-Anthony Towns to the starting lineup. Reid should continue to play a key role within the Minnesota rotation, especially while Towns gets back into game shape.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Ejected against Washington

    Reid was ejected from Tuesday's game against the Wizards with 3:36 remaining in the first quarter. He finished with three points, two rebounds, one steal and one block in eight minutes.

    The officials determined that Reid made "unnecessary and excessive" contact to the head of Johnny Davis. With Reid hitting the locker room early, Kyle Anderson is likely to pick up a lot of minutes.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Posts massive 31/11 double-double

    Reid chipped in 31 points (12-16 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 35 minutes during Sunday's 127-117 victory over the Lakers.

    Reid has effectively softened the blow of Karl-Anthony Towns' (knee) extended absence. If Towns rejoins the team for the playoffs as expected, it will be interesting to see if coach Chris Finch goes with a trio of Towns, Reid and Rudy Gobert alongside Mike Conley and Anthony Edwards. Reid has certainly displayed his ability to stretch the floor, averaging 5.1 three-point attempts per game with a conversion rate of 41.8 percent.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Pops for 23 points in blowout

    Reid finished Wednesday's 133-85 victory over the Raptors with 23 points (8-15 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 26 minutes.

    Reid's contributions have been significant for the Timberwolves amid Karl-Anthony Towns' (knee) absence. Although the team should have Towns back for the playoffs, Reid's interior presence will be crucial as they attempt to keep ahead of Denver and Oklahoma City for the top seed in the West. The LSU product has averaged 18.6 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.1 blocked shots over nine consecutive starts.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Hits 20-point mark again

    Reid closed with 25 points (10-17 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 113-106 win over the Rockets.

    Reid has adjusted well to being a full-time starter due to the absence of Karl-Anthony Towns (knee), and the versatile forward is going through a career-best stretch in recent weeks. He's scored at least 20 points in three of his last five appearances. He's averaging 18.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and a combined 2.1 steals-plus-blocks per game since moving to a full-time starter role on March 16.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Leads Minnesota in scoring

    Reid supplied 21 points (9-18 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds and four assists across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 106-91 victory over the Pistons.

    Reid was uncharacteristically poor from three-point range, as he failed to make multiple threes for the first time since March 12. However, he still played a prominent role on offense and led Minnesota in scoring, perhaps embracing the more significant role due to Anthony Edwards' subpar outing. Reid has scored over 15 points in five games in a row and in seven of his last eight contests, averaging 20.4 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 44.4 percent from deep during that eight-game stretch.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Double-double against Golden State

    Reid had 20 points (7-11 FG, 6-8 3Pt), 12 rebounds, two blocks and one steal over 29 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 victory over the Warriors.

    The 12 boards tied his season high as Reid recorded his fourth double-double of the campaign. With Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) sidelined, Reid has started five of his last six games and averaged 18.0 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.3 threes, 2.3 assists, 1.7 blocks and 0.8 steals over that stretch while shooting 50.0 percent from the floor and 45.5 percent (20-for-44) from beyond the arc.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Available against Cavaliers

    Reid (head) is available and starting against the Cavaliers on Friday, Serena Winters of Bally Sports Cleveland reports.

    The presence of Reid gives Minnesota some sort of stability in the frontcourt, as Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is out and Rudy Gobert (ribs) will be a game-time decision. Reid is averaging 16.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.4 blocks per game since the beginning of March.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Iffy for Friday

    Reid (head) is questionable for Friday's game against Cleveland.

    Reid missed Tuesday's game against the Nuggets due to a head injury, and it's unclear whether he'll be able to suit up Friday. If he remains out, Luka Garza could see an increase in playing time once again.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Unavailable Tuesday

    Reid (head) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Denver, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.

    Reid will join Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) on the sideline while Rudy Gobert (ribs) remains questionable, leaving Minnesota compromised in the frontcourt. Luka Garza will likely remain in a fringe rotation role regardless of Gobert's status, while Kyle Anderson appears locked into a 30-plus minute workload and could see some run as a small-ball center if Gobert can't go.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Questionable for Tuesday

    Reid (head injury) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets.

    Reid left Monday's game against the Jazz early, but the questionable tag suggests he's dealing with a day-to-day injury. In addition to Reid, Rudy Gobert (ribs) is also questionable. If the Timberwolves are shorthanded, they could turn to Jaden McDaniels, Kyle Anderson and Luka Garza.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Won't return Monday

    Reid has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Jazz due to a head injury, Dane Moore of 'The Dane Moore NBA Podcast' reports. He recorded 17 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one block in 17 minutes prior to his departure.

    The Timberwolves are already without Rudy Gobert (rib) on Monday and Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is likely done for the regular season, so Reid's early exit leaves Minnesota without its top three big men. Head coach Chris Finch could be forced to rely on more small-ball lineups for the rest of the night or lean more heavily on two-way player Luka Garza at center.

  • Timberwolves' Naz Reid: All-around showing in start

    Reid supplied 22 points (7-18 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 12 rebounds, five assists, two blocks and two steals over 35 minutes during Saturday's 119-100 win over the Jazz.

    With Rudy Gobert (ribs) absent, Reid got the starting nod, leading all players in Saturday's contest in rebounds and ending as one of three Timberwolves with 20 or more points in a double-double performance. Reid has started two games this year and recorded at least 20 points in both outings. He has four double-doubles this season, but this was his first 20-point, 10-rebound showcase.
