Naz Reid And James Johnson May Be More Alike Than You Think

There’s something compelling about the way Naz Reid plays basketball.

Whether you caught him at Louisiana State University, in Summer League, playing with the Iowa Wolves or making his debut with the Timberwolves, Reid most likely made an impression on you the first time you watched him play.

I still think back to this past summer when he introduced us to his quick release from beyond the arc, his adept passing that allowed him to stand out among other centers and his explosiveness under the rim that didn’t match the calm demeanor he played with on the court.
