Houston Rockets Select Kentucky's Reed Sheppard with No. 3 Pick in 2024 NBA Draft
Jun 27, 2024, 12:24 AM
The Houston Rockets have selected Reed Sheppard with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. Sheppard, a standout guard from Kentucky, shot an impressive 52% from three-point range last season and averaged 2.5 steals per game, tying for the most by any freshman. As the third overall pick, Sheppard is expected to sign a four-year, $45.9 million contract with the Rockets, including $20.7 million guaranteed over two years, two club options, and a $10.1 million 2024 salary. Despite some analysts questioning his draft position, Sheppard's shooting prowess and defensive capabilities make him a valuable addition to the Rockets' roster. Notably, Sheppard had an incredible freshman season without even starting and is considered the best shooter in the draft.
