Expert Analysis
Davis McCarn | Prep Hoops Scout
Reed is one of the fastest guards I have watched all spring. He is a team first point guard who plays with confidence and does a great job controlling the tempo of the game. He’s dominant getting downhill and finishes well at the rim using either hand, while also showing comfort pulling up from the midrange. Reed can extend his game beyond the arc, giving defenses another thing to account for. He is great in ball screen scenarios, consistently making smart reads and finding open teammates. He reads the roll tag well which opens up a ton of 3s from the shake on the back side. Defensively, he brings pressure at the point of attack and makes life tough for opposing guards. His overall feel for the game and two way impact make him a strong college level guard.

Another member of a talented Coral Glades High School team that went 21–8 this season, Reed is a quick, smart, and highly skilled lead guard. He is a reliable decision maker with a strong handle, can knock down open shots, and consistently plays under control. Reed has the ability to create his own offense off the dribble while also serving as a capable passer who keeps teammates involved.

Reed is a quick, smart, and skilled lead guard who averaged 13.2 points and 4 assists per game while shooting an impressive 48% from beyond the arc. He plays with strong command of the basketball, makes reliable decisions, and consistently puts his team in position to succeed. A solid perimeter shooter with efficiency and range, he can both score and facilitate at a high level. The high academic prospect also brings value on the defensive end of the floor.

The skilled junior turned in an impressive performance in the Jaguars’ win over the host school, The Villages. Reed was excellent as both a shot-maker and shot-creator, showing the ability to score off the catch or off the dribble. He has above-average foot speed, handles the ball well, and changes speeds effectively to keep defenders off balance. His continued development makes him a prospect college coaches should monitor closely over the next six months.

This skilled lead guard is trending upward and will move up in our next rankings update based on the strong junior season he continues to put together. Reed is highly polished with the ball, a reliable decision-maker, and one of the top shooters in the state. He finished with 13 points on Saturday at the Wally Keller Classic, showcasing his ability to score both off the dribble and on the catch. With excellent shot preparation and a quick, efficient release, Reed consistently makes defenses pay for even the smallest mistakes.

Plays with a high motor and strong IQ. Reed got to his spots, broke down defenses, and dished out assists at a solid clip. Fearless attacking the rim and plays with that underdog fire that wins over coaches.

Reed has become a reliable presence in the Glades backcourt. He takes care of the ball, shoots with confidence, and keeps his team in rhythm. With several returners, including Reed, this Glades squad could be one of the more competitive teams heading into next season.

Reed had ice in his veins as he knocked down the game winning three pointer. The sophomore guard was doing all of the right things to make sure his team came out with the win and hitting the three pointer that put them ahead sealed the deal. Another player on this Jaguars team who will be returning, so it seems Glades may be a powerful team to keep track of after this season concludes as well.
