Is Reeves going to be some 28/8/8 player? No, but that’s what’s wrong with the NBA. You don’t need 5 starters all averaging 25+. You need that 15/5/5 player. You need that consistent 3rd guy. Reeves is that person. You got Tobias Harris out there being paid x3 the amount putting up the same numbers. That’s what matters here. Do we WANT Reeves to be a 28/8/8 player. Yeah, sure. Do we need him to be? Nope. Being the 15/5/5 player will absolutely be good enough imo, but I also don’t think that’s his ceiling either.
