Reed Sheppard jumps past Bronny James in NBA Mock Draft

The basketball sensation from Kentucky surpassed LeBron James’ son — Bronny James in the latest NBA Mock Draft, shaking up predictions for the 2024 class.

Sheppard, a special prospect in the basketball world, captured attention during the 2024 NBA Draft Combine. He shook the CBB world with his 42-inch vertical leap, the highest recorded at the event. Discussing this on Paul George's "Podcast P," Sheppard said:

“I know I can jump. I didn’t know I was going to have the highest vertical in the NBA draft.”

He humorously credited his trainer for a technique that gave him a few extra inches.

“I got to give a lot of credit to my guy Ryan at Proactive (Sports Performance.) He kind of helped us out with a little arm trick. When I saw 42 it kind of made me laugh because I wasn’t expecting it and I know no one else was.”

While Sheppard stole the spotlight, Bronny James also impressed scouts and executives with his 40.5-inch vertical leap. However, according to ESPN, James is projected to be the 54th pick, heading to the Boston Celtics.
