The seven-foot sophomore is shaping back into form, scoring 19 points on 8-of-11 shooting on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That adds another option for the Thunder and a formidable pick-and-pop option for SGA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat<\/strong>: Gilgeous-Alexander&#8217;s cleared this line in four of the past six games vs. Minnesota.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick pick<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Reid over 27.5 points and rebounds<\/strong> <\/strong>(-110):<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> There is no injury report for either the Thunder or Wolves at the time of writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s unlikely either Julius Randle or Rudy Gobert return for Minnesota meaning Reid should start again tonight, but that is worth monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Reid is in the starting lineup, this line becomes all the more appetizing. Why? Well, take a look at his last nine games as a starter:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>21.4 points, 9.6 rebounds per game (32.0 PRA).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>He&#8217;s 8-1 against this line during that time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In the two recent meetings with OKC, he averaged 37.0 points\/rebounds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Reid&#8217;s been on the court often as an important part of the T-Wolves rotation. He played north of 32 minutes in nine straight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if Randle and\/or Gobert are in, I can&#8217;t see either logging big minutes after missing significant time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 10:30 a.m. ET on 02\/24\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Minnesota Timberwolves and Oklahoma City Thunder run it back on Monday.
