Sheppard talks about coming off the bench: I m very proud to work with the starting players to put the game into a virtuous cycle

November 13th NBA regular season news, the Rockets defeated the Wizards 135-112. Reed Shepard, who came off the bench, played well and said after the game that he was very proud.

"I feel very proud. You know, this is an important role. The starting players always do what they have to do, they will take control at the beginning of the game, and then when they are tired and need a rest, the substitutes can come in to inject energy into the game and raise the level of the game. And when the substitutes can score and the starters come back, the game enters a virtuous cycle and becomes very interesting." Sheppard said.

In this campaign, Shepard played 24 minutes and 41 seconds off the bench, making 8 of 11 shots, 5 of 8 three-pointers, and 0 of 1 free throw. He scored 21 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block, with all-around data of +13 plus/minus.
