EDIT: Brain* tumor, obviously

The guy who offered $20 Naz Reid tattoos a couple years ago (and continues to offer new and different T-Wolves Tats) was just diagnosed with a brain tumor per his wife on Instagram. I went and got the Naz Reid tattoo 2 years ago during that amazing playoff run, and JC was an insanely positive and cool dude, he loves Minnesota and is a Timberwolves Mega-Fan. He's a self employed Tattoo Artist and will be unable to work while recovering from surgery and potential chemotherapy. He has a wife and 2 children.

Let's show him some love with some "Naz Reid." donations!

  3. Ugh. FC.

    I accidentally showed up a week early for mine and forgot the following week. Haunts me to this day. Good luck JC!

  4. just sent this to everyone at the communications department at the Timberwolves. If you all think of other people, or even if you want to send it to them a million times so they have to see it, I encourage it.

  6. I know a guy named Brian that just refuses to go away. You could call him a Brian tumor, as well.

  7. Cancer sucks, hope nothing but the best for JC

    On a side note it’s sad that we live in one of the wealthiest countries in the world and people have to rely on “go fund me” for medical emergencies. So messed up man

  10. Donated what we can afford. I think tattoos are dumb but also there is the Naz Reid… in the end, we gotta protect the pack.

    Brian tumors are awful. Same for Jim tumors and Sally tumors.

  12. Since the original Naz Reid flash tats event, my wife and I made JC our go-to tattoo artist. This is absolutely heartbreaking news.

    JC really is a great guy, he is always so kind and fun to talk with at wolves events and when I’m in his shop to get a new tattoo done. Will be donating and wishing him nothing but the best as he begins a difficult treatment process

  14. Met him when I got mine this past summer. He is awesome and a true Wolves fan. This breaks my heart. I will be donating.
