WATCH: Reed Sheppard dunks on competition at AAU event

By now, you’ve probably heard the name Reed Sheppard. The 16-year-old son of former Kentucky Basketball great Jeff Sheppard and former UK Hoops star Stacey Reed is making a name for himself at North Laurel High School and also plays for Indy Heat in the EYBL circuit. Over the weekend, Sheppard turned heads at an AAU event with back-to-back dunks that will have you flashing back to his dad’s playing days.

Just like dad, right?

Here’s more footage of Sheppard stealing the ball and driving the lane for a left-handed layup:

Back in February, Sheppard had a quadruple-double in North Laurel’s win over Jackson County, putting up 24 points, 10 rebounds, 14 assists, and 10 steals.
