Kareem Reid (b. August 27, 1975) is a former point guard in the National Basketball Development League. He played college basketball for the University of Arkansas Razorbacks, and went on to play professionally in several leagues in the United States and Europe. Reid is also a well known street-ball player in the Bronx, playing in the Rucker Park league, where he won three consecutive championships at the Entertainers Ballers Classic from 2002-2004.
Reid led St. Raymond High School for Boys to New York City and state championships as a junior in 1993, and to the city championship as a senior in 1994. One of the top rated point guards in the country as a senior, Reid was named a McDonald's All-American, and signed with the Arkansas Razorbacks after being discovered by Head Coach Nolan Richardson while playing in the King Cotton Classic in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. Reid participated in the 1994 U.S. Olympic Festival, helping his East team to a silver medal.
Reid was forced to sit out the 1994-95 season at the University of Arkansas because his ACT score was disputed by the NCAA. Opening the 1995-96 season as a freshman, Reid led the Razorbacks to the Sweet Sixteen of the 1996 NCAA Tournament, and the NIT Final Four as a sophomore. He finished his Razorback career as the all-time leader in assists with 748, and third all-time in steals with 251. Reid averaged 11.3 points, 5.7 assists, and 1.91 steals per game for the Razorbacks. Reid was named to the All-SEC Freshman Team after the 1995-96 season, and was named 2nd Team All-SEC as a sophomore.
