Starting versus Orlando
Reid will start in Wednesday's game against Orlando.
Analysis
With Julius Randle (hand) and Rudy Gobert (rest) unavailable, Reid will make his first start since the 126-123 loss to San Antonio on Jan. 17. In two starts this season, the 26-year-old has averaged 9.5 points, 1.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals across 16.5 minutes.

Productive outing vs. Indiana
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.
Analysis
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.

Strong line off bench
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.
Analysis
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.
