Pelicans Jump Back Into Second-Round; Draft Kentucky Guard Antonio Reeves

New Orleans, LA - The New Orleans Pelicans started off the day without a second-round pick. They changed that with a trade with the Orlando Magic for the No. 47

The First-Team All-SEC guard made 44% from beyond the arc on almost six attempts last season.

Reeves is a five-year college player who is a versatile scorer from all areas of the court. He led the Wildcats last season with 20.2 points and made over 300 three-pointers in his college career. Reeves is a 6-foot-6 guard who played for three years at Illinois State before transferring to Kentucky. During his two-year career in Lexington, he scored 1,155 points, the second-most points over two years in program history. His 20.2 points per game are the most points averaged over a season by any player during the John Calipari era.


Now we talkin'.....

I know nothing about basketball. So, on a scale of 1 to Brock Bowers, how good is this guy?

Yes.

His only sin is his age.

He had me at 44% from 3 on six 3PTA per game…

 

[Dago]

I like the pick. At worst, should be a solid bench scorer.

Don't Overthink Antonio Reeves

This game has been, and always will be about getting buckets. Antonio Reeves is one of the best off-ball bucket getters in the 2024 NBA Draft.

I like the pick. At worst, should be a solid bench scorer warmer.

Hawkins could barely make it on the court and he was a 1st rounder. I don't see Green & Co. giving any of our picks any decent playing time.

I didn't say as a rookie

 

[IlovemySaints]

He’s 24 though already about 190 bouta make a lil more money so he can eat get up to bout 205 hawk came in extra skinny

29% of his field goal attempts came at the rim. That don't make it at least twitch?

 

[Taker597]

I really like this pick. I hope this mean we get hawkins in more motion shooting action instead of stationary catch and shoot corner 3. Which I don't understand his usage. He always seems to be better as a movement shooter.

 

[Infoman]

The kid is a 6-6 flame thrower that can kill teams from deep (near unlimited range) and can finish at the rim or in the midrange too - He was UK's leading scorer... If he were 19.... He'd be a lottery pick.... Love this pick... moreso than our 1st rounder... He's a good fit around Z also...

I can't remember who said the following on WWL last night. If you can play guard at Kentucky,you can play
in the NBA.

It's a pretty impressive list.
