Impresses off bench against Miami Reid finished with 25 points (10-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two steals across 28 minutes during Saturday's 106-90 victory over the Heat.
Impact Reid was a standout performer for Minnesota in this one, and he managed to outplay both Rudy Gobert and Karl-Anthony Towns despite not starting. Reid is not expected to move to the starting lineup regardless of how good he looks, as that would mean sending Towns or Gobert to the second unit, but his numbers have been quite good. Through two games, Reid has racked up 35 points, 12 rebounds, two assists and two steals.

Impact Even with Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) getting the night off, Reid remained in his usual role as the frontcourt anchor for the second unit and produced impressive numbers. The contract extension he signed over the summer could keep him in Minnesota through 2025-26, and the commitment from the team suggests his workload could increase from the 18.4 minutes a night he saw in 2022-23, even if Towns and Rudy Gobert stay mostly healthy.

Impact Reid underwent surgery to repair a left scaphoid fracture in his left wrist way back in April, but Minnesota hasn't even mentioned it which is a great sign. There has been some chatter about Reid playing a larger role this season, as he proved to be very reliable off the bench in 2022-23 which earned him a $42 million deal.

Agrees to three-year deal Reid and the Timberwolves agreed Sunday on a three-year, $42 million deal that includes a player option, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Impact Reid broke his wrist a few weeks before the regular season ended and was sidelined for the Timberwolves' postseason series loss to Denver. The talented big man was expected to miss six weeks following his surgery in early April, so he should be full go for offseason workouts this summer. Reid appears to have taken a discount to remain in Minnesota, as he likely could've commanded a bigger deal elsewhere. As a reserve last year (57 games), Reid averaged 10.5 points and 4.5 rebounds in 16.9 minutes, but he thrived as a starter (11 games), posting 16.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks in 26.1 minutes. It's unlikely he'll be a regular starter as long as Karl-Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert are available, but regardless of his role, Reid will be critical part of the Timberwolves' rotation for years to come.
