Reid notched five points (2-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 17 minutes during Saturday's 116-105 loss to the Nuggets in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Reid didn't have many chances to score during Saturday's loss, and it was the first time since March 17 against the Suns that he did not attempt 10-plus field goals in a game. His scoring output dipped noticeably toward the tail end of the 2025-26 campaign, as he averaged just 11.8 points per game on 40.5 percent shooting over his last 18 outings of the regular season since March 1. The Timberwolves will need more from Reid if they want to get past the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Iffy for Friday
Rotowire
Reid (shoulder) is questionable for Friday's game against the Rockets.
Presumably, the Timberwolves are contemplating a maintenance day for Reid here. He started in the absence of Rudy Gobert on Wednesday against the Magic and finished with 15 points (6-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and three steals across 24 minutes.

Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Fills stat sheet in spot start
Rotowire
Reid logged 15 points (6-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and three steals across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 132-120 loss to the Magic.
Reid moved to the starting lineup due to the absences of Julius Randle (hand) and Rudy Gobert (rest). As expected, Reid was one of Minnesota's most reliable offensive weapons in a game where the starters were either rested altogether or limited to fewer minutes. Reid has been playing well lately, averaging 12.7 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.2 blocks, 1.1 assists and 1.1 steals per game over his last nine outings.

Rotowire
Reid supplied 17 points (7-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and two steals across 24 minutes during Tuesday's 124-104 victory over the Pacers.
Reid has been putting up solid numbers off the bench, and he remains a viable fantasy alternative despite his second-unit role in the Timberwolves' frontcourt. Since returning from a two-game absence due to a sprained right ankle March 22, Reid is averaging 12.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.1 blocks and 1.6 three-pointers made across 26.8 minutes per game. Those numbers aren't close to the prime of his career, but he remains a solid, reliable option to start in most formats.

Rotowire
Reid ended Thursday's 113-108 loss to Detroit with 19 points (6-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two blocks over 30 minutes.
Reid put together a strong showing Thursday, taking advantage of some extra usage with Anthony Edwards (knee/illness) out. Edwards is questionable for Friday's game against the 76ers, so Reid may be called upon once again in an expanded role.

Timberwolves' Naz Reid: Ejected Wednesday
Rotowire
Reid was ejected from Wednesday's game against the Rockets with 4:13 remaining in overtime, Chris Hine of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports. He finished with 14 points (5-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 13 rebounds, two steals, two blocks and one assist across 31 minutes.
Reid was frustrated with a foul call in overtime and was handed a technical before being tossed from the contest. The seventh-year big man isn't expected to face any further discipline, so he should be available to serve in his usual sixth-man role in the Timberwolves' next game Saturday versus the Pistons.

Reid (shoulder) is available for Tuesday's game against the Suns, per Chris Hine of the Minnesota Star Tribune.

The big man has averaged 12.3 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 25.4 minutes per game over his last six contests, and Reid should see a bump in usage due to the absence of Anthony Edwards (knee).
