BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 30% of leagues
ANALYSIS: If/When Karl-Anthony Towns come back from his COVID scare, Reid will definitely lose all of his appeal. Wait a minute, are we sure of that? Sure, the two games in which Reid and KAT shared the floor this season (KAT has only played four total) the younger guy was on the court for less than 20 minutes, didn't star, and his numbers were rather low. But since KAT has been out and Reid was thrust into the starting lineup he's thrived.
Reid isn't needing a ton of minutes to put up numbers. In seven starts in the past eight games Reid has averaged 13+ PPG, 6 RPG, 1+ APG, and 3 stocks per game. He's basically a nightly line-stuffer doing it all for a barren Wolves squad that has found some sort of bright light in the second-year man out of LSU.
Reid posted his first dub-dub of the year on Jan. 25 against GSW (11-10) and was this close to doing so for the second time last Wednesday finishing with a nonetheless good 8-11-3-2. Oh, and I haven't mentioned that Reid can stretch the floor as hell and is hitting 1.2 3PG on the season, while he is on a streak of scoring at least one triple in 12 consecutive games.
