LSU’s Naz Reid Declares For NBA Draft
The LSU Tigers will have to do without their second-leading scorer and leading rebounder on the basketbal court next season.
LSU freshman Naz Reid will forego his final three years of college eligibility to enter the 2019 NBA Draft.
The 6-foot-10, 250-pound Reid averaged 13.6 points, to go along with 7.2 rebounds-per-game, while shooting 47% from the floor and 33% from the free throw line.
A native of Asbury Park, New Jersey, Reid was ranked as the 18th-overall recruit in the nation coming out of Roselle Catholic High School.
Reid is currently projected as a late first-round/early second-round draft pick.
