NBA Eastern Conference Preview & Talking with St. Joe’s Guard Erik Reynolds — HPP S3-E07

Hoops Prospects Podcast (HPP)

With the NBA Preseason set to start in less than two weeks, the HPP crew previews all 15 teams in the Eastern Conference. The show also features the regular NBA and College Notebook segments, and Saint Joseph guard Erik Reynolds II, an Atlantic 10 Player of the Year candidate, talks with the guys about his game, the upcoming season, and Philly basketball traditions.
An All-A10 selection in 2022-23, Erik was one of the most efficient scorers in the nation, ranking at the 88th percentile for points per possession. He ranked second in the A-10 with 19.6 points per game, and he ranked in the top 10 of the conference for FG% (43.0), 3P% (37.9), and FT% (88.5). He also ranked in the top six of the A-10 for player efficiency rating (21.4), win shares (4.7), and plus-minus (5.0).
