Dude from eastern Kentucky wearing 1k$ louboutin shoes to an NBA draft. lol proud of my guy. I used to watch him at North Laurel HS just down the street from my house.

@@gavcastellano4929 it means more when you actually get it out the mud, like how I watched my dad do it.

Slow your roll. Stockton was an elite defensive guard. 5 all defensive teams. Sheppard was a turn style in college. Definitely has a better jumpshot that's correct.
Love this kid. Hope he does great in the NBA. I think he’s gonna be a better version of Austin Reaves. The sky is the limit for Reed because he can do it all. He can facilitate the offense, he can make defensive plays, shoot the three, get to the rim. Can’t wait to watch a true born and raised Kentucky kid play on the biggest stage in the world!

Buddy came off of the bench and lead his team in assists and steals. Kentucky was stacked at the point and 2 guard positions and he truly stood out. I thought he should have won 6th man of the year in the SEC.
SUPER-POLISHED prospect; I'm def impressed with the interview alone. But this is a case of Perceived vs Actual Value -- which is more of an NFL concept. He's gonna be Good, no doubt: too much not to like about his game. But a Top-3 selection? Understood he wouldn't have been around in that 11-14 range, but that's prolly where he belongs to avoid being a "Bust" if he doesn't become a perennial All-Star and All-NBA player. Looks smaller than 6-3" also, and the 42" Vertical and other tests he topped out in don't really translate in his game -- even if numbers are official. Can shoot it like nobody's business and shows good court awareness both offensively and defensively. But unless he dominates his matchups nightly, he's just a complimentary player, and that's not gonna be good enough. Will he be at least as good as, say, Devin Booker -- a guy with similar skills, is maybe less athletic, but who is slightly bigger? Doubt it. I like Sheppard a lot, but #3 pick in any draft for him is def a reach.
Can these reporters do a little research before they start asking these guys questions? He's already answered the first question like 20 times in other interviews, just do a simple search and you'll figure that out
💪😺💙🤍💙🏀🔥🔥🔥reed 😊 going miss u on kentucky ...but i be watching you in the NBA...😊.... Go cats and bulls ! And lakers im big fan for the lakers 😅😂 but love watching all the kentucky players 😊BBN 4life
forget not being able to drink for like 18 months.... is he able to get into R-rated movies on his own?! lol. That said, great pick. He and Jared McCain will be the next generation's Steph/Klay (not in terms of star power, just in terms of 3-point marksmanship)
As a Rockets fan, I’m starting to feel like those fans from MyCareer that boo the team for taking MP over Shep Owens. I don’t think this guy is gonna be anything special, but if the Rockets pick him, I hope I’m wrong.
@@brandonthomas4175 I hope so. But this guy doesn’t look like all that. He seems like a nice guy, but at the 3rd pick, I am disappointed that we took him! 😔
@@guillermoportillo7949 as far as the whole d4aft, im content with this pick. Guy shot over 50% in college.

Bro he’s not athletic. They fooled y’all. He faked his standing reach to get a 40 inch vert. His suit his dope but his game is not his ceiling is Reaves not even Herro
Would make no sense when you Have Sengun and Steven Adam’s on the roster already . The Rockets need shooters more than anything else and they drafted the best shooter in the draft with Reed Sheppard.
I work in Reed's hometown. Everyone here just became Houston Rockets fans last night lol
welcome from a native Houstonian and life long Rockets fan!
Welcome! He's going to be a perfect fit. Literally everything we're lacking he can do
Welcome! Prepare for liftoff as we are happy to have you all!
welcome aboard fam
Greeting from Houston! We are so glad to have you! We are very excited about Reed coming to our Rockets.

He seems pretty humble, at least in this moment
I feel like we are looking at a modern John Stockton but with a better jumpshot! This kid is SMART AF on court!

Not even close to being a top 5 pick

i hope someone drafts bronny before the lakers before the 55th pick to ruin the lakers plan..
Yeah about that.

Austin Rivers ganna tell me this guy is a better athlete then AJ Brown. He can lie if he wants.
Wait, what? Those are 2 different sports and he's still talking about that junk.
Dude is so tiny for a non point guard.
He will be a point guard in the pro’s . Depending on line ups and matchups he might get some time at the SG spot as well .
Reminds me of Booker, we said the same thing about Booker but he's found his way
From the screenshot I thought this was the evil bible kid!
