PAUL REED (DET)
#44•P. REED
F/C • 6’9, 220 lbs; 5th year, DePaul
UNDERDOG
NBA ROLE: ACTIVE, HYBRID BIG
Paul Reed is a bit overlooked: active, hybrid big w/ some inside-out scoring; runs the floor very well in transition - consistently has the upper hand in terms of a speed + athleticism advantage, uses it to create scoring opportunities; dogged defender, able to frustrate opponents w/ persistent style - leads to plenty of blocks & steals; unconventional but effective offensive game: Reed’s not afraid to put the ball on the floor and attack w/ short jumpers, is effective as a shooter & roll man off the catch; very solid midrange game, though doesn’t get many opportunities to showcase it; Reed converted his 2Way deal into a standard contract in 2021, plays nice rotational minutes as a backup 4/5
SIGNATURE! COMING SOON.
