AJ Reeves’ Journey to Providence

It doesn’t take long to see why Ed Cooley fell in love with the game of AJ Reeves. Not since Ricky Ledo committed to Cooley in the summer of 2011 has Providence signed a guard with this type of offensive arsenal at this stage of his development.

Reeves can score on you in any number of ways. He rocks defenders to sleep before pulling up at the top of the key. He looks equally comfortable shooting from deep off of the catch or after a couple of dribbles. Inside the arc he makes use of an exaggerated right to left crossover to free himself, shoots fadeaways from various spots on the floor with ease, and isn’t afraid to mix it up inside.
