The 6-foot-7, 180-pound forward is the No. 16 player in the nation, per 247Sports. Reid is the No. 4 power forward in the country and the No. 2 recruit in California in the class of 2024.

The five-star forward is versatile and can play either shooting forward or power forward. Reid is a good rebounder and defender. Reid plays inside more than you would expect at his size. Reid often throws down highlight dunks.

The Florida State Seminoles have had a back-to-back down years in the ACC. Florida State has a long history of developing and recruiting top wing talent, so head coach Leonard Hamilton and the Seminoles should have a legitimate chance to land Derrion Reid.

Top school: Alabama Crimson Tide

Alabama has recently turned into a basketball powerhouse. The Crimson Tide are usually known for their football prowess, but should not be overlooked in Derrion Reid’s recruitment. Alabama finished the 2022-2023 basketball season with a record of 31-6, which was tops in the SEC.

Top school: Georgia Bulldogs

Reid puts Georgia in his top three. The five-star shooting forward would be an excellent addition for the Bulldogs. Reid visited Georgia in Sept. 2022.

Georgia second-year head coach Mike White is looking to add an influx of talent to the Georgia program.
