The Greatest Minnesota Timberwolves Player of All Time (Naz Reid)
Now say my name Nas Reed you’re goddamn right sup dude unicorns are extremely valuable and very hard to find lucky for Minnesota they somehow stumbled upon two of them flashback to 2015 they got their first unicorn with the first pick of the 2015 draft then I came Minnesota and they
Decided to call me big purr what the is that big purr big purr oh I like big purr better don’t do that prior to the NBA cat was highly touted because of his size athleticism shooting and defense he reminded some of LaMarcus Aldridge because of his sweet stroke but
There wasn’t really a perfect comparison because he was just so unique fast forward to now in just nine Seasons he’s become arguably the greatest three-point shooting big of all time putting up a little over 4 threes at night connecting on 40% of them whether you like him or
Not you got to acknowledge how special that dude is now I wouldn’t go as far to say as he changed the the game but he’ll most certainly go down in history as one of the most important pieces of the big man 3point Revolution while cat’s cool and all Minnesota’s other unicorn is in
Another Stratosphere of cool the dude’s cooler than a polar bear in a snowstorm with sunglasses on he’s cooler than a cucumber in an ice bath in the North Pole with a fan club of penguins cheering him on he’s Nas Reed Nas Reed is a 69 nice 264 lb bucket
Getting machine before I get into his NBA career let’s take a trip back to his high school days back then Nas was referred to as big jelly and was a member of the jelly fam an extremely popular group from like 6 years ago consisting of high school hoopers from
Harlem and New Jersey the two dudes I remember are Javon quinerly and Isaiah Washington them along with the other members were known for the cool little finger rolls they did back in 2017 dudes couldn’t get enough of these guys their Clips went viral on social media all the
Time the movement was so big they were able to turn into a brand and even now they have their own team in the overtime League while they were very successful on social media the only one who made it to the big leagues was notz Reed Javon and Isaiah are both in like their
Seventh year of college basketball and while I was researching the other guys I found that one of the founders jaquay James got arrested in high school for slapping some kids bare ass with a belt I may have understood the article wrong but I’m pretty sure I didn’t and it gets
Worse in another complaint he was said to be slapping a different kid’s bear ass with just his hand he ended up getting charged with two counts of simple assault but whatever who cares I just want to know what the hell was going on in that high school why were
There two dudes getting their nak cheek slapped by jqu what kind of freaky ass bullying do they do up in New York anyway I’m going off track back to NAS Reed he ended up earning a scholarship to Shacks Alma moer and throat throttled everything in his path there for 100
Possessions he averaged 28 points and 15 rebounds during his freshman year after that he decided to put his name in the draft but things didn’t really go to plan he went undrafted because he was fat as hell at the combine his body fat percentage was measured at 14% which was
The highest at the combine by a landslide the dude was doing his best Charles Barkley impersonation nobody else was even in double digits but thankfully the Wolves believe all bodies are beautiful and they picked him up a few weeks later ever since then it’s been history there’s not a single
Timberwolves fan who doesn’t love the guy Nas Reed is a God in their community and for good reason the dude is a complete joy to watch on the basketball court he brought his jelly fam swag to the league the big fella doesn’t play like a traditional big fella first of
All he’s got a deadly strap on him he’s the best three-point slinging Center in the league shooting nearly 40% on five attempts a night just a week or two ago he put seven through the net in a 27-point master class in that game he was a spot up machine and didn’t really
Show off his ball handling but let me tell you this dude can handle balls better than your mom his In-N-Out dribble is a work of goddamn art watch him violate Jeremy soan with it the way he plays is unfathomable if a coach from the 70s saw this he’d have a
Heart attack on top of his ball handling and three-point shooting he’s also a very talented scorer and close whether it be a dunk hook or big jelly as of right now he’s missed just 16 out of 66 shots which which is a blistering hot 76% I didn’t check League average but
That sounds pretty damn High he’s a complete scoring God so far this season he’s playing 22 minutes a night averaging 13 points on basically 50/40 90 efficiency per 100 to scoring average jumps all the way up to 29 Points I kind of hate how he’s on a team with two
All-Star big men cuz imagine what he’d be doing as the first option on a bad team he’d be putting up Wilt numbers and not only is he amazing offensively but on defense he’s pretty stellar too standing at 69 with a 7 wing span he’s got great size that allows him to be a
Very versatile big man he can test shots at the hoop very well and gets a decent amount of blocks he can also switch out of the paint and hold his own on the perimeter thanks to his quick feet Nas Reed can quite literally do it all
What’s scary about that is he’s not even in his final form yet I can’t tell you when he’ll get there but you’ll know after doing all this research on him I’ve come to find he doesn’t have many weaknesses but one of his few happens to be the most beautiful shot on the court
The mid-range shot so far this season he shot seven of them and made just three he needs to link up with mid-range Legend sea Livingston and learn a thing or two speaking of Sean I made a little video talking about him you can click here to watch it thanks for watching
This one hope you enjoyed bye dude
