If you didn’t believe it already, believe it now: Reed Sheppard is a first-round NBA Draft prospect, as a major NBA Mock Draft just included him among the top 30 picks.
In the latest mock draft at ESPN, Sheppard cracked the first round, going No. 25 overall to the Indiana Pacers, where he would team up with Oscar Tshiebwe, who just got his first call-up to the NBA.
This shouldn’t come as any real surprise for anyone who’s watched Sheppard play this season, as he’s been nothing short of sensational for the Kentucky Wildcats.
