Thread: Deep Dive on my #1 Prospect Reed Sheppard: Statistically one of the best shooters in CBB history as a freshman, Reed has textbook shot form, something you'd show your children to model their own shot after. He is currently shooting a scorching 55% from 3 & 63% on ATB 3s.

@BlockedByBamba NGL what are you talking about? lively had insanely good productivity metrics , PPG is not production only. Being able to contribute to winning on a high level while barely scoring may have even helped his case, bronny was not productive or contributed to winning sadly.

This three point shooting is not to be understated, as defenses are now aware of his high percentages, and even in high coverage during conference play, he has started to increase his %, as of Jan 22, 2024. His current TS% of 76% puts him at the highest of all drafted players.

Also shooting 79% on Close 2s, 44% on Far 2s, and 83% from FT, so he can really score anywhere. This efficiency is unprecedented, and there are few drafted freshmen or even sophomores that have come close to these percentages on this volume of 3s.

Using my model, I’ve determined a “cutoff” rate for prospects that are extremely unlikely to become good NBA players. There are only 3 prospects since 2008 who have been under -0.16 expected VORP/year and became >0.2 VORP/Year players (above average), as you can see in the graph.

Of course, shooting is not the only positive in his game, but it is by far the most important one if he wants to succeed in the NBA. His IQ is also off the charts for a freshmen, both on defense and offense. He almost always knows when to make the right Reed (lol) on the floor.

For a 6'3 guard, his defensive metrics are extremely surprising at first, with a 2.9 BLK% and a 5.0 STL%, but once you watch his games you can tell how intelligent he is on that end. Loves to disturb passing lanes for steals and strip ball-handlers, poking and prodding all game.

He loves to combine both offense and defense, using his defensive IQ to get steals and offensive IQ to make quick transition passes to his running teammates. His playmaking vision is underutilized in Kentucky's offense, with a 24 AST% and a 3 AST/TO ratio, he can definitely pass.

His defense is even more surprising when you start to see him guarding bigger guards and wings, and even contesting bigs regularly, at his average size. His strength and frame allow him to not be pushed around, like many other smaller guards at his age, and he has great footwork.
