Summary:
Reid Travis is a tough, physical bruiser that can bang in the middle to get points and rebounds for his team. As he has decided to transfer to Kentucky, he could be one of the featured players on offense for the Wildcats, which could help boost his draft stock.
He’ll need to improve his jump shot and show that he can lock down upper echelon players on the defensive end, but his ability to produce could enable him to be a potential second round pick for the upcoming draft.
