Scores 14 points with six rebounds Reid registered 14 points (6-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists, one steal and two turnovers across 26 minutes in Friday's 119-80 loss to the Celtics.

Impact The Hornets were dominated from start to finish, resulting in Reid watching most of the fourth quarter from the sidelines. He was the only Charlotte starter to reach double figures, but he didn't do it efficiently, converting just 35.3 percent of his shot attempts. Reid has been hit-or-miss this season, averaging 16.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 2.3 triples per game on 41.6 percent shooting from the field and 65.2 percent at the line. Those numbers have him ranked outside the top 150 in fantasy leagues.

Bounces back in loss Reid recorded 28 points (11-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one block across 36 minutes in Wednesday's 114-104 loss to the Nets.

Impact After averaging 11.5 points per contest on 32.6 percent shooting in his previous four outings, Reid delivered a major bounce-back performance Wednesday, albeit in a losing effort. The big man posted a game- and season-high scoring total and paced the Hornets in rebounds, finishing a rebound away from his fourth double-double of the season. Kon Knueppel made his season debut Wednesday, though he exited to the locker room in the first quarter and did not return due to left leg soreness. If Knueppel needs to miss additional time, Reid could continue seeing increased usage.

Another rough shooting night Reid finished with 14 points (4-12 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one block across 36 minutes in Saturday's 109-104 loss to the 76ers.

Impact Reid had difficulty getting most of his shots to fall in Friday's 95-79 loss to the Wizards. Things didn't get any better Saturday for the 27-year-old, who failed to sink any of his attempts from behind the arc. Still, despite some rough patches in his first year with the Hornets, including getting benched during the second half of Wednesday's meeting with the Pistons, Reid is averaging a career-best 15.9 points and 8.6 rebounds per contest. However, it's unclear if Reid will be able to remain as productive once Coby White (calf) and Kon Knueppel (hamstring) are cleared to get back on the floor.

Benched in second half Wednesday Reid recorded seven points (2-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and one block across 13 minutes in Wednesday's 97-89 loss to the Pistons.

Impact Head coach Charles Lee said postgame that Reid "didn't meet our standards in the first half," and he didn't step on the hardwood in the second half. Although he saw limited action, the big man still finished as the Hornets' third-leading rebounder. He scored 17-plus points in each of the first four games of the regular season, recording two double-doubles in that span.

Poor shooting in win Reid finished with 18 points (8-22 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 0-1 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 29 minutes during Monday's 110-103 victory over the Wizards.

Impact Reid struggled offensively through three quarters before erupting for 16 points and seven rebounds in the final period to help Charlotte secure the victory. Despite the inefficient shooting performance, the big man delivered another strong showing on the glass and continues to play a prominent offensive role for the Hornets. His ability to contribute points, rebounds and three-pointers makes him a valuable fantasy option, and he did this despite being under the weather prior to the game.

Nets 23 points with nine boards Reid notched 23 points (9-16 FG, 5-8 3Pt), nine rebounds and two blocks in 37 minutes during Saturday's 115-110 win over Miami.

Impact Reid was phenomenal on the defensive end, helping hold Giannis Antetokounmpo to just 14 points on 4-for-11 shooting, and he delivered on offense as well. After a lackluster preseason, Reid has been rolling to start his 2026-27 campaign, churning out top-50 value with averages of 20.0 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 4.0 triples per game on 47.1 percent shooting.

Paces Charlotte in blowout loss Reid recorded 17 points (7-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 25 minutes in Friday's 128-81 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Reid did most of his damage in the first half, as he logged only seven minutes in the second half of this blowout loss. The big man was the only Hornets player to score more than 11 points, and he also finished third on the team in rebounds. He's totaled 37 points, 17 rebounds and nine assists through his first two regular-season games with the Hornets and will likely continue seeing increased usage for as long as Kon Knueppel (hamstring) and Coby White (calf) are unavailable.
