Reed Sheppard
Rockets
Recap
Reed Sheppard bolstered the Rockets’ victory over the Lakers in Game 4 with a stellar 17-point performance, shooting 50% from the field. Efficient from beyond the arc and a defensive force with three steals, Sheppard’s contributions were pivotal. The second-year guard’s minutes in Game 5 may hinge on the return of Kevin Durant, who has missed recent games due to an ankle injury.
