Bryant Reeves: The Vancouver Grizzlies Big Man who SHAQUILLE O’NEAL COULDN’T FIGURE OUT | FPP

His career only lasted 6 years and it was filled with losing, add that to playing for a franchise that relocated near the end of his time there, and it’s very easy for Bryant “Big Country” Reeves to be forgotten. He had a dominant career at Oklahoma State playing for Eddie Sutton where he would even lead them to the Final Four as a senior in 1995. He was then drafted to the expansion Vancouver Grizzlies as the first face of the franchise. He was never a superstar player, but he was on the rise and had improved every year during his first three years in the NBA with the expansion Vancouver Grizzlies. But when the NBA lockout occurred in 1999 he came back out of shape and this led to chronic as a result of his weight which forced him out of the league at 28 years old. When he was at his best, he was a skilled offensive center in the golden era of the big man. He could post you up for a jump hook or turn around, but also step out 15 feet and drain the midrange shot. A big knock on his game was his lack of defense, especially since he had that country strength that could have made him so dominant. But unfortunately, he quickly became an afterthought with the emergence of Shareef-Abdur Rahim and Mike Bibby before the team moved to Memphis and Reeves’ back injuries forced him to retire. He disappeared from the league after that and has only recently been heard from, but he’s happy and doing well and one thing you can never take away from him is that he was the face of the Vancouver Grizzlies and beloved by a city when he first arrived. https://www.basketball-reference.com/...
