Reid will continue coming off the bench this season while new acquisition Julius Randle (shoulder) will enter the starting lineup when healthy, Evan Sidery of Forbes.com reports.

Reid thrived off the bench en route to claiming Sixth Man of the Year honors last season, and Minnesota will opt to keep him in the same role for 2024-25. The 25-year-old was productive as a starter as well, averaging 17.6 points and 7.0 rebounds while shooting 46.0 percent from the field across 14 cameos with the first unit. Since it's unclear if Randle will be fully healthy for Opening Night as he continues ramping up from a right shoulder dislocation suffered in January, Reid likely profiles for an enlarged role regardless of Minnesota's frontcourt shuffle.
