Reaves #Reaves
Former Oklahoma guard Austin Reaves is going through the draft process this summer after calling it a collegiate career a few months ago. A big part of making yourself an attractive option to prospective NBA teams is making a good impression at the draft combine if you are lucky enough to get an invite.
Well, fortunately for Reaves, he is on the right side of that selection process. He was included on the list of participants the NBA released on Tuesday. Here is the full list:

Reaves left college on a high note, having his best season of his four, two of which were at Wichita State. He averaged north of 18 points per game along with 5.5 rebounds and 4.6 assists and was the all-around best player on a solid Sooners team that made it to the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
It isn’t going to be easy for Reaves to work his way into a potential second-round pick, but it isn’t impossible either. Getting the chance to showcase himself against the other draft prospects can help his odds as he tries to make a bigger name for himself ahead July’s draft.
The combine is set to run from June 21-27 and will take place in Chicago before the 2021 NBA draft takes place on July 29 in Brooklyn.
