There is a high probability that the contract will be jumped out! Will the Timberwolves benched to find a big contract this summer?

According to the famous NBA reporter Jake Fischer, it is generally expected that Minnesota Timberwolves' substitute inside player Naz Reid will choose to jump out of the contract this summer and become a complete free agent. Jake Fischer wrote: Both Timberwolves need to decide this summer whether to execute the player option or stay on the team, or not to execute the option and become free agents. Among them, Julius Randle has a $30.9 million player option, and he must decide whether to execute the player option before June 29. Reed, on the other hand, has a $15 million player option. Many league figures believe that the NBA's best sixth man winner last season will choose to reject the option and become a free agent.
In the NBA regular season this season, Reed played 80 games in 82 games, averaging 27.5 minutes per game, averaging 14.2 points, 6 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.9 blocks, and 1.4 turnovers and 2.4 fouls, shooting percentage of 46.2%, three-point shooting percentage of 37.9%, and free throw shooting percentage of 77.6%. In the playoffs, Reed averaged 25 minutes in these 15 games, with averaging 10.4 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.9 blocks, and 1.9 turnovers and 2.9 fouls. He shot 50.9%, three-point shooting percentage 39.7%, and free throw shooting percentage 76%.
Reed's overall performance in the NBA regular season and playoffs this season is actually quite good. He is able to show rich offensive methods and comprehensive scoring skills on the offensive end, and his effect on the court is also worthy of recognition. Not only that, Reed's ability in passing and supporting is also worthy of recognition, and his performance on the defensive end is also quite outstanding. In the playoffs, he was able to maintain sufficient stability while playing time and tactical status decreased, and he was able to play his value on both offense and defense.
Judging from Reid's ability and performance, he is indeed qualified to win a larger contract. The most important thing is that Reed can only play a substitute in the Timberwolves, and his abilities are not fully utilized. When he went to other teams, with his ability, he was fully qualified to play a more important role. After getting more playing time, Reed's data can also grow, which will also be more beneficial to his career. I wonder how Reed will choose his next stop this summer. Will he continue to stay in the Timberwolves?
