Recruiting Report: Will Reed (2018)

<h2>October 16, 2015</h2><p>After a solid campaign as the starting point guard last season as a freshman for Gerstell Academy, it would seem colleges would be tracking 6-foot point guard <strong>Will Reed.</strong></p> <p>But still, he has received no contact from any programs, in any capacity.</p> <p>“I haven’t gotten anything yet,” said Reed. “It really doesn’t surprise me, my father says it’s a long process and it might take a while to start up in the beginning.”</p> <p>The talented 2018 spent his offseason playing with Baltimore’s Finest, and says setting up his teammates for success is what he did best.</p> <p>“I thought I excelled at being a floor general and helping my teammates get in the right spot and set them up when they’re there. I think I got better at finishing inside when attacking bigger people, especially along the baseline,” said the 6-foot point guard, who defined his style of play to <em>PHM.</em></p> <p>“My strengths are ball-handling and setting up buckets for other people, and I can get a little flashy every once in awhile. I still need to work on finishing around the rim against bigger competition, I’ve been working on floaters in the lane and bank shots.</p> <p>Last season as a freshman with the Falcons, Reed says he averaged 15 points and 5 assists per game. This season he says he will be able to boost his assist numbers.</p> <p>“Last year we didn’t have as much scoring and I was the primary scorer,” he said. “But this year we had a bunch of new kids transfer in so I can play my normal style and just distribute the ball, and get shots up when I need to.”</p>
