High Point University senior basketball forward Arizona Reid scored 13 points in his debut game at the prestigious Portsmouth Invitational Tournament (P.I.T.) on Thursday night helping his team K&D Round's Landscaping to a 90-78 victory over Norfolk Sports Club.
Reid, who started the game and played 21 minutes, was second on his team in scoring and also finished with three rebounds and a steal. He went 6-for-10 from the field with one three-pointer.
Six of the eight players for K&D reached double-digits led by 15 points from Folarin Campbell of George Mason. Notre Dame's Rob Kurz tallied a double-double with 11 points and 12 rebounds.
Reid and his teammates advanced in the winner's bracket of the tournament and will meet Portsmouth Sports Club at 9 p.m. on Friday in a tournament semifinal game. VMI standout Reggie Williams and UNC Greensboro's Kyle Hines headline the PSC roster.
The P.I.T. is the nation's oldest amateur basketball tournament and is recognized by NBA and European scouts as the premier showcase for future professional players. It is the only tournament for college seniors to participate in and be evaluated by the NBA prior to the league's pre-draft camp in Orlando.
