He showcased career-high statistics, averaging 13.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, and an impressive 41.4% success rate from beyond the arc with an average of five attempts per game.
Reid’s contributions off the bench proved invaluable to the Timberwolves’ success. His consistent performances and versatility made him a key player in their rotation, earning him the coveted John Havlicek Trophy as the league’s top reserve player.
