Minnesota Timberwolves big man Naz Reid has been an elite sixth man over the past few seasons. Reid earned a five-year $125 million deal this summer, highlighting his value to the team. While many people discuss Reid's rare blend of size (6-foot-9), shooting, and shot creation, his playmaking often goes under the radar.
Notably, Reid is coming off a season where he averaged a career high 2.3 assists. His previous career high was 1.3 assists, so this was a significant leap. Additionally, Reid posted an impressive 12.3 assist percentage and a 1.68 assist-to-turnover ratio. Reid's guard-like skills make him a key part of the Wolves' success, and it's possible he'll be more crucial than ever to the team this season.
