https://tinyurl.com/2nuh7y6z After Tim Connelly’s first season as Timberwolves president of basketball operations, he was high on Naz Reid. When Reid was a free agent two summers ago, Connelly signed him to his second contract, even though the franchise had Karl-Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert as its starting frontcourt. 两年前，在Tim Connelly接任灰狼队篮球事务营运总裁的第一个赛季後，他 对 Naz Reid 评价很高。当时 Reid 成为自由球员，尽管阵容已经有 Karl-Anthony Towns 和 Rudy Gobert 作为先发前场，他还是签下生涯第二 份合约续留。 Reid, for his part, was happy in Minnesota, content to be with the team that drafted and developed him, and happy to embrace the love of a fan base that made him a cult hero, even if potentially he turned down more playing time on other teams. Reid本人也很乐意留在明尼苏达，很高兴能待在选秀并培养他的球队，也很 高兴能拥抱将他视为偶像的球迷们，即使意味着他可能放弃了在其他球队更 多上场时间的机会。 Two years later, Connelly, the Wolves and Reid haven’t changed their minds about each other, and Reid will now be a member of the team for at least the next four years. Reid is tearing up the player option he had for next season for around $15 million and will sign a five-year deal worth up to $125 million to stay in Minnesota, sources confirmed Friday night. The fifth year of the deal is a player option. 两年後，Connelly、灰狼球团和Reid彼此之间都没有改变心意，Reid现在将 至少在未来四年都是球队的一员。消息人士周五晚上证实，Reid将放弃他下 个赛季约1,150万美元的球员选择权，并将签下一份为期五年、价值高达 1.25亿美元的合约，续留明尼苏达。这份合约的第五年为球员选择权。 Reid, who was the Sixth Man of the Year in 2023-24, is coming off a year in which he topped the numbers that earned him the honor. He averaged a career-high 14.2 points on 46% shooting and a career-high 6.0 rebounds while averaging 27.5 minutes per game. Reid是2023-24赛季的最佳第六人，他刚结束一个数据表现超越了为他赢得该 荣誉的赛季。他场均得分达到职业生涯新高的14.2分，投篮命中率46%，篮板 也达到职业生涯新高的6.0个，每场上场时间为27.5分钟。 Reid is the first of a few dominoes to fall in free agency for the Wolves, who are trying to stay under the second apron of the salary cap and the punitive roster-building restrictions that come with that. Reid签约是灰狼队进入自由球员市场的开端，他们正努力将团队薪资控制在 第二层缴税门槛（second apron）之下，以及随之而来的惩罚性组队限制。 Julius Randle still has a player option of around $31 million he must decide to take or decline, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker is a free agent. The value of Reid’s deal (around $25 million per season, but likely less in the first year) means it will be difficult for the Wolves to retain Alexander-Walker if Randle opts in to his deal while staying under the second apron. Alexander-Walker is widely reported to be a target of multiple teams in free agency and could command around the full mid-level exception of $14 million. Julius Randle仍有一个约3,100万美元的球员选择权，他必须决定是否执行 或放弃；Nickeil Alexander-Walker则是非受限自由球员身份。Reid合约的 价值（每年约2,500万美元，但第一年可能较低）意味着，如果Randle选择执 行选择权，同时球队要保持在第二层豪华税门槛之下，将很难留住 Alexander-Walker。据外界消息，Alexander-Walker是多支球队在自由市场 的目标，他可能会要求接近1,400万美元的全额中产特例。 Reid was also a potential target of other teams, but just like two years ago Reid is opting to stay in Minnesota even if it means he will come off the bench again behind Randle and Gobert. Reid也是其他球队的潜在目标，但如同两年前，即使意味着他将再次担任第 六人角色，Reid选择留在明尼苏达。 --- 25-26 21.55M 26-27 23.28M 27-28 25.00M 28-29 26.72M 29-30 28.45M(PO) 可能是上述数字，AE、Jaden、Naz三位的合约长度几乎同步。 --
