Timberwolves expected to extend Julius Randle, but not Nickeil Alexander-Walker, after Naz Reid's lucrative deal in free agency

It’s a good thing that the Minnesota Timberwolves were able to get Naz Reid to agree on a new extension. Because the Detroit Pistons were reportedly looking to make a serious push at luring away the talented forward if he tested free agency.

Minnesota Timberwolves star Naz Reid intends to sign a five-year, $125 million contract to stay with the franchise, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. Reid was set to become one of the top free agents available on the open market, but instead, will stay with the franchise that signed him as an undrafted free agent in 2019.
