Naz Reid Fantasy Stats

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid (shoulder) was originally listed as questionable for Tuesday's road game against the Jazz, but he was upgraded to available on Tuesday afternoon. Reid left Saturday's game against the Spurs after just five minutes with shoulder soreness and was unable to return, but he'll keep his streak intact of playing every game this season for Minnesota by bouncing back to return on Tuesday. In his 43 games, Reid has produced 14.5 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 0.9 blocks in 26 minutes per contest. He has a favorable matchup against the Jazz on Tuesday night and will be the primary backup big behind Rudy Gobert and Julius Randle.

Minnesota Timberwolves center Naz Reid (shoulder) is currently listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Utah Jazz. Reid was forced to make an early exit from Saturday's game due to a left shoulder injury. He wasn't able to return to the court and is now uncertain for Tuesday's game. Fellow big man Rudy Gobert (hip) has been removed from the injury report after sitting out of Saturday's game. He could see a few extra minutes if Reid is unable to play on Tuesday. Joan Beringer could see more minutes as well, but is an inconsistent fantasy option.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid (shoulder) won't return to Saturday's meeting with the Spurs. He got the start in place of Rudy Gobert (hip). Unfortunately, the 26-year-old would end up logging only five minutes before eventually being ruled out because of left shoulder soreness. Minnesota plays again on Tuesday in Utah, although there likely will be an update in the next day or two. As far as the remainder of Saturday's contest is concerned, 2025 No. 17 overall selection Joan Beringer should see considerably more action.

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid agreed to a five-year, $125 million deal to remain with the team. The 25-year-old was the NBA Sixth Man of the Year in 2024. However, he is coming off arguably the best year of his career, finishing the 2024-25 campaign by averaging 14.2 points and 6.0 rebounds. As of now, he's projected to come off the bench for the Timberwolves, although that could change depending on what Julius Randle does this offseason. If Randle doesn't stay with the franchise, Reid may move into the starting lineup, which will improve his fantasy potential even more.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/centers Naz Reid and Julius Randle are both expected to be back in Minnesota next season, according to coach Chris Finch on Friday. Finch said, "Absolutely, yes," he expects both players on the roster next season, even though both have player options. Earlier reports this offseason indicate that Reid is likely to opt out of his deal, which is not a surprise since he could likely get a much bigger deal if he signs a new contract. It sounds like Finch expects him to re-sign with the Wolves, although it would be fascinating to see him in a bigger role with a new team from a fantasy perspective. If both return to Minnesota, Reid will likely serve as the team's sixth man again in 2025-26 and be the primary backup for both Randle and Rudy Gobert.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid will likely join the free agent pool this offseason. According to NBA insider Marc Stein, many around the league expect Reid to decline his $15 million player option for the 2025-26 campaign. Reid will be seeking a pay rise and possibly a more significant role going forward. Speaking during his exit interview last week, Reid said he "100 percent" sees himself as a starter in the NBA. Reid won the Sixth Man of the Year award last season and followed it up with a career year in 2024-25. He averaged 14.2 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in 27.5 minutes. In 17 starts, Reid pushed his numbers to 18.3 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.3 blocks. Fantasy managers can expect similar numbers from him next season if Reid secures a starting role. For that to happen, he will likely need to move away from Minneapolis, as Rudy Gobert is blocking his path with the Timberwolves.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid returned to his Sixth Man of the Year form in Game 1 against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday, putting up 19 points on 8-for-14 shooting and collecting five rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block in a 99-88 loss. Reid, who was 3-for-7 from behind the arc, appeared to have injured his left leg in the second quarter but was able to finish the contest, logging 34 minutes. Minnesota saw Reid contribute only 11.6 points and 3.6 rebounds in Round 1 against the Los Angeles Lakers, but it looks like he will have a much more important role to play in the matchup against the Warriors.

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid (suspension) was suspended for one game on Tuesday. Reid will serve a one-game suspension for his involvement in an on-court altercation with the Pistons on Sunday. Donte DiVincenzo was also involved in the scuffle and won't be able to play Tuesday against the Denver Nuggets. With Reid sidelined, Minnesota's frontcourt will likely need Luka Garza to take on extra minutes for this evening's contest.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid (finger) is good to go for Monday's action against the Sacramento Kings. The team has upgraded his status from questionable to available ahead of tip-off. Reid will make a second consecutive start, with Julius Randle (groin) remaining on the shelf. A finger sprain ruined Reid's first start of the campaign on Saturday against the Washington Wizards, limiting him to eight points and three rebounds in 20 minutes. However, his career numbers as a first-unit member are solid at 14.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid (finger) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Sacramento Kings. A finger injury limited Reid to 20 minutes in Saturday's loss to the Washington Wizards, and he may have to sit out Monday's contest entirely. Reid took Julius Randle's (groin) starting spot on Saturday, and Luka Garza might now be the next man up. Garza has been dominant in the G League but has made a limited impact in the NBA, averaging 5.2 points and 2.1 rebounds in 8.3 minutes.
