NBA’s elite 3-point shooter is still a free agent

Reggie Bullock just finished a year in which he appeared in 44 games for the Houston Rockets.

He finished the season averaging 2.2 points and 1.7 rebounds per game while shooting 41.5% from the field and 40.3% from three-point range in 44 games.

This summer, Bullock became a player without a contract who could sign with any team in the league.

As of August 21, he still hadn’t signed a contract.

Although Bullock is no longer at his best at 33, he is still a reliable veteran who can shoot three-pointers at a high level.

The former UNC star was selected 25th overall in the 2013 NBA Draft and played 11 seasons for the Detroit Pistons, Dallas Mavericks, New York Knicks, Los Angeles Clippers, Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Lakers and Phoenix Suns.

His career averages are 7.3 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game while shooting 42.4% from the field and 38.5% from three-point range in 556 regular season games.

He also appeared in 27 NBA playoff games and was with the Mavs when they reached the 2022 Western Conference finals.

The best season of Bullock’s career was 2018 with the Pistons.

In 62 games (52 starts), he averaged 11.3 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game, shooting 48.9% of his field goals and 44.5% of his three-pointers.

The Rockets finished last season in 11th place in the Western Conference with a record of 41-41.

They missed the NBA playoffs (and the play-in tournament).
