Is winning a skill?
Tarris Reed sure thinks so. It’s the little things…the sacrifice, the stuff that doesn’t show up in a box score.

Another one of my favorite late 1st round guys is Tarris Reed Jr. He’s a monster on the boards and a great mover for his size at 6’11 263 with a 7’4 wingspan. He has taken a big leap every year which makes me optimistic going forward.

Reed's plus length & excellent mobility was evident in his time in college, but the Combine benchmarked just how special his movement is at his size.
Tarris is the only player 250lbs or higher to EVER test this agile, Zeke Nnaji is the only player anywhere close to his weight!
Tarris Reed Jr would be a unique outlook at a Power Forward-Big that fits the idea of the Taylor Jenkins/Offense that is also capable of pressuring and hunting blocks, deflections on defensive-end.
Through the pre-draft he also seemingly wants to show to teams his shooting stroke and combo-y improvements.
Tarris Reed would be at a baseline a great, more valuable system fit with rebounding, playmaking, defense over the Bobby Portis role with the ability to add hits and pieces of scoring offense besides being a paint/dunker talent.
^He gives you everything he isn’t in defense, rim-protection, “dunker”-work.
Workout SZN is upon us 💪
@CoreyTulaba traveled to Tom’s River, NJ to get a behind the scenes look and share his impressions on UConn big man Tarris Reed and Syracuse bound for not Aiden Tobiason as they prepare for the 2026 NBA Draft

In the gym with UConn’s Tarris Reed this morning as he prepares for the 2026 NBA Draft.
Reed’s unique combo of skill, feel, strength, length, and mobility helped lead the Huskies to the NCAA National Title game. When I asked what him what he was looking forward to showing teams during the pre-draft process he said “shooting”
After the team flew back following UConn’s National Championship loss, Tarris Reed Jr. prepared a speech on short notice for UConn’s Athletes In Action meeting.
“I told myself I would let the Holy Spirit speak through me.”
He revealed that night, both Azzi Fudd and KK Arnold of UConn WBB got baptized
Truly amazing work and an inspirational message from T-Reed 🙏

There is no reason for Tarris Reed to not be a first-round pick in the 2026 NBA Draft. He’s physically dominant, elite rebounder on both ends, and a load to deal with in the paint trying to go through him. Catches bodies on screen-and-rolls… what more do you want???
Tarris Reed Jr. has played a huge role in getting @UConnMBB back to the Final Four.
After a difficult start to his time in Storrs after transferring from Michigan, he’s hoping to leave with a parade in his senior season.
