Reed Sheppard · As must-see and productive as any across the NBA’s 2K25 Summer League environment, Reed Sheppard confirmed on October 23, 2024 that, although the seasons may change, a bucket-getter’s craftiness certainly doesn’t. Meeting the competitive eye of LaMelo Ball — already solidified as one of the Association’s most innovative offensive talents — Sheppard matches the high-profile head-to-head with creativity of his own through the help of a screen-and-roll. Escaping Seth Curry’s potential help with a calmed switch-hand dribble and maneuver towards the floor's middle, Sheppard clears his path for an uncontested, through-the-lane jumper, checking off his first-ever NBA bucket. The 2024 No. 3 pick rewarded his coaches’ trust with a serviceable first showing, even given the Charlotte Hornets’ come-from-behind victory over his Houston Rockets to open regular-season play. Across 16 minutes, the shifty floor general contributed to the statistical sheets in numerous ways, turning in four points (on two-of-five shooting), two rebounds, three assists, and one blocked shot. · State of Mint
