Steps in as backup center Reed recorded six points (3-8 FG), seven rebounds and three steals across 15 minutes Saturday in the 76ers' 103-93 win over the Cavaliers. Impact For the second game in a row, Reed served as the main backup to Joel Embiid following Thursday's blockbuster trade that sent Andre Drummond to the Nets. Despite being an undersized for the position at a listed 6-foot-9 and 218 pounds, Reed has put up quality numbers across the past two contests, averaging 6.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.5 steals and 1.0 blocks in 14.0 minutes. While he looks to have leapfrogged rookie Charles Bassey on the depth chart at center, Reed may not stick in the rotation once Paul Millsap -- whom the 76ers acquired in that same deal Thursday -- is cleared to make his team debut.
