Reid played college basketball with the Florida State Seminoles. After four years in college, he was eligible to be drafted by a National Basketball Association (NBA) team in the 2010 NBA Draft. He was drafted by the Indiana Pacers with the 57th pick and his draft rights were immediately traded to the Oklahoma City Thunder
Early life
Ryan Reid was born to Jasmine and Kenneth Mullings. He was born and grew up in Lauderdale Lakes, Florida. He attended and played for Boyd Anderson High School in his hometown. During his last three years with Boyd Anderson, he averaged 18 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocked shots. After graduating in 2005, he attended Florida State University. He was reportedly chose Florida State over Florida, Miami, Georgia, Houston and Pittsburgh. He also played basketball in the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) with the Tallahassee Wildcats.[1]
College career
Reid played under coach Leonard Hamilton for the Florida State Seminoles, who played in the Atlantic Coast Conference in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I. As a freshman, he played in all 35 games off the bench, averaging 2.9 points on 56.2 percent shooting and 3.2 rebounds in 16.1 minutes per game. In his sophomore season, he started 21 games and played a total of 25 games for the Seminoles. He improved his performance and averaged 5.6 points on 53.1 percent shooting and 5.0 rebounds in 24.1 minutes per game.[1] He helped the Seminoles to the National Invitation Tournament (NIT) tournament in both years.[2]
Reid played 35 games in his junior year, averaging 4.9 points on 44.0 percent shooting and 3.7 rebounds in 19.1 minutes per game. In his final year at college, Reid was named as the team captain.[3] He played in 31 games and averaged 6.8 points on 49.1 percent shooting and 4.0 rebounds in 22.7 minutes per game.[4] He helped the Seminoles to the NCAA Championship in his junior and senior season. Despite his low scoring and rebounding numbers, his biggest contribution for the Seminoles came at the defensive end. He became one of the best defenders in the college and successfully defended top college players.[5][3] He became one of only three players in the Seminoles history to reach the postseason in all four years. Reid, who helped the Seminoles to 88 wins, also had more wins than any other player in school history. He finished his college career with 126 games with 5.0 points per game and 3.7 rebounds per game average.[2] He graduated with a bachelor's degree in social science on May 1, 2010 and became the first person in his family to earn a college degree.[6]
Professional career
Reid was automatically eligible for the 2010 NBA Draft after finishing his four year college eligibility. However, he was not considered as top prospects in the draft because of his ordinary college career. The Oklahoma City Thunder is the only NBA team who showed an interest in Reid and offered him a chance to work out before the draft.[7] He was eventually drafted by the Indiana Pacers with the 57th pick in the draft and his rights was immediately traded to the Thunder in exchange for the rights to Magnum Rolle, the 51st pick.[8] His selection was considered a surprise in the draft because some analysts did not even consider him as a top-100 prospects for the draft.[9] Nevertheless, the Thunder was already impressed with Reid's defensive abilities and work ethics and decided to took a chance on him.[3]
He played for the Thunder in the 2010 Orlando Summer League. He played in four games averaging 8.3 points and 3.8 rebounds in 16.0 minutes per game.[10] However, he didn't receive a contract offer or an invite to the Thunder training camp for the 2010–11 season.[11] On November 26, 2010, he was acquired by the Tulsa 66ers, the D-League affiliate of the Thunder.[2] His rights in the NBA are still held by the Thunder. Hence, the Thunder is the only team that are allowed to call-up Reid to the NBA during the 2010–11 season.
