NBA Today caught up with former Kentucky guard Reed Sheppard at the 2K26 Summer League in Las Vegas this afternoon.
Sheppard talked about he felt when he found out the Rockets said he was “untouchable” in offseason trade talks.
“I think that’s really cool,” Sheppard said. “It gives me a lot of confidence just going into the gym continuing to work on everything I’ve been working on this summer.”
Sheppard also said he’s been spending a lot of time working on his defensive game.
