Wow. That's one thing I didn't see coming. I think I've missed two of those games so I don't really know how he's been playing, but I hope he can keep this up. Those shooting percentages are amazing.

Yeah this took me by surprise as well.
He's had a great week, and the Pacers will need him to keep it up if they are to go deep in the playoffs this season.

He is just showing why he shouldn't retire.

Congrats to Reggie. Hopefully he can keep it up.
