Reed renewed his contract for 125 million in five years! Side evidence that the Timberwolves chose two centers but was not satisfied. Missing Yang Hansen is too heartbroken

On June 28, ESPN reporter Shams reported that the Minnesota Forest will sign a five-year new contract worth 125 million with Naz Reed. The average salary of this contract is $25 million. This contract is still a 4+1 contract that includes player options. He is the most critical contributor to the Timberwolves' bench in the past three seasons.

Reed averaged 14.2 points, 6 rebounds and 2.3 assists in the Timberwolves last season, with a shooting percentage of 46.2%. He is the team's second center, and sometimes he also partnered with Gobert on the Double Tower. He is one of the top space-type inside players in the league.

Reed has earned a total of 33.01 million US dollars in the past six seasons. Now he has signed 125 million in five years. In an instant, Reed has become a billionaire. Being able to compete in sports is the king.

After the Timberwolves renewed their contract with Reed, it can actually indirectly show that the team is not satisfied with the draft in the frontcourt. Although this Timberwolves is full of frontcourts - Gobert, Randall, and McDaniels, they actually have shortcomings, especially Gobert, who has no ability to defend the outside and have no space in the playoffs. The Timberwolves selected the 17th pick for the 2.09-meter-high center Joao Berlange in France. He is a 2.7-4.6 per game last season, and he has the ability to shoot. The Timberwolves selected the 2.21-meter-high Timberwolves' No. 45 pick. Zikarski, who was 2.21 meters tall, signed a two-way contract with him after the draft. His wingspan was 7-foot-5. Last season, he averaged 12.2 minutes in the NBL, scoring 4.7 points, 3.5 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 0.7 blocks and 0.3 steals, with a shooting percentage of 50%, a three-point shooting percentage of 20%, and also has a certain three-point shooting ability. But neither of these two people are ready to fight. The Timberwolves originally had the candidate for the No. 17 signing, Yang Hansen, but Yang Hansen was intercepted by the Trail Blazers on the No. 16 draw, and the Timberwolves draft office was silent.
