gold star for USAHOF

27. Naz Reid

27. Naz Reid

American players who go undrafted don’t often make it to the NBA, but Naz Reid put in the work to make it where others were have given up.

Playing at LSU, Reid signed with the Timberwolves, splitting time between the parent club and Iowa of the D-League in his rookie year.  Reid stayed with Minnesota for good in his second season, finding a role off of the bench to give a rebounding and blocking percentage, while still taking enough shots to make him viable offensively.  While Reid has yet to average 20 Minutes per Game in a season, which was not aided by the addition of Rudy Gobert.  

Going into this year, Reid is averaging a shade over 10 Points per Game.
