Scouting report

Backcourt analysis

Austin Reaves is a 85-rated shooting guard and a genuine first option, ranked #5 of 79 shooting guards in Backcourt.

The game suggests the Scorer role for him — a player who demands the ball and creates his own shot from anywhere. With mid-range (88), three-point (87) and inside scoring (85), it rates the fit as “Workable”: sound rather than special.

For a shooting guard, his standout attributes are passing (88) and speed (85), in the top 2% and 4% of shooting guards respectively.

Build the rotation around him, but cap his minutes near 34 in ordinary weeks and save the heavy nights for the Cup and the playoff race. A stamina of 86 lets him carry more than most.

At 27 he is close to his ceiling of 87.

He earns $14.0M a season with a transfer value of $33.7M — a bargain for his rating.
