Reed Sheppard Scouting Report | 2024 NBA Draft Breakdowns
Спорт
Reed Sheppard put together an exceptional freshman season and became a legitimate lottery prospect with his high level shooting, passing feel and defensive event creation. He has big questions to answer in the type of creator he can be, especially being just 6'3, but his combo of impact & outlier stats make him a fairly safe bet to contribute.

He'd be perfect on Houston with Senguin as an offensive hub distributing the ball. Coming off screens, DHOs and constant motion to where he doesn't have to dribble the ball and keep the defense off balance like Curry. Running a PnP with Smith and PnR with Senguin would be deadly.

As a rockets fan I don’t like this move. Sengun being the offensive hub caused half the team to be stagnant and out of rhythm. Rockets are better when they play fast and utilize their speed and athleticism with guys like Amen, Jalen, Cam, Tari, etc. Ime loves defense so I think Clingan is the pick here

What a dumb take. The bottom line is he is not 6’8. You take this kid this high in the draft, and you’ll be regretting it for years. Not saying he won’t be a solid pro, but I wouldn’t draft him this early. Back of the lotto or early teens are better suited for his skill sets.

As a rockets fan Reed is the perfect fit for our team he a great combo guard which means he can play well with Amen and Jalen on ball and off ball. He could also play well with Sengun in the pick and roll. But man taking him at 3 might be rich but if the rockets love him and he at the top of their board you go ahead and take him

My only concern with him (if we pick him) is how his defense is going to translate into the NBA. His instincts and IQ look well on-ball, but I’m worried that his size will end up being an issue. Under Udoka, though, I think the odds are pretty high that he’ll be at least average on the defensive end of the court

Not that it matters, I'm a wizards fan. I think they are taking him. They have 2 sf they are rebuilding with. They traded gafford to Dallas, they're trying to trade kuzma and they have this Jones at pg who was trade bait last deadline. I see the wiz taking him and making Jordan Poole compete. They have another 1st Rd. And assuming they trade kuzma for another pick, they have those to address other needs. Poole is about the only player their stuck with because of his play to pay ratio.... So I see them taking someone at his position. Could be dillingham they pick tho

Think the Grizzlies would be a great fit too. Could come off the bench to replace Kennard, who I think he'll be better than. Then eventually ease into backup PG duties after Smart moves on. He'd also get the development as a ball-handler/shot-creator. Bane has made a huge strides in those areas.
If I was Orlando I would move up to get him. Trade some future picks to get him. He is specifically what they need. Him with Suggs in the backcourt would be awesome.

The offense would be great but the defense between him and LaMelo would be poor. We have seen that two offensive-minded guards paired together don't perform that well, especially in playoff settings.

A shorter Brogdon, good all-around but ground-bound, elite shooting, assassin type off the bench.
Reed Shep, IS THE NEXT MARK PRICE. the resemblance minus the injury...
Will be excited to see him play under an elite coach. If you are shooting 50% from 3 and taking less than 3 or 4 shots a game, you are being underutilized. That would have been way easier to translate into more buckets at the college level than the pros, but he has a lot of time to develop under the right program.
He's Austin reaves if you traded 4 inches of height for true knockdown shooting ability. The advanced stats are other worldly. Him, clingan, and sarr are the clear top 3 to me.
I know he’s no where close as a defender and he’s also much shorter, but I could see some shades of Klay Thompson with his shooting stroke and lack of shot creation.
He looks alot like a Derrick White he’s gonna hit his ceiling fast
🔥🔥🔥
I want him or Castle in a Spurs uniform 🤞🤞
I would honestly consider taking him first overall in this draft. His ability to shoot isn’t just great, it’s special. In today’s NBA, he’s not going to have trouble getting his shot. He might not be a lead guard like Curry but more like Klay and I think he has a bit more pop off the dribble than Klay. He’s got plenty of athleticism and quickness, he’s a good playmaker. I can see him becoming a 20/5 guy in the league. If I’m the Orlando Magic I am all over this. He’d be the perfect compliment to Paolo, Franz and Suggs.

A smaller Klay Thompson basically means he’s not gonna be as relevant. Prime Thompson was that good because of his size,that he could guard up to 3 even 4 with his size and strength, while Reed will be bodied by any one who’s bigger than him. As the old saying,on the basketball court an inch is an inch,when you’re this short you either be fast like D.Rose, or max out your handle like Steph or Kylie. Who needs a 3&D who’s only 6’2?
