WATCH: Reep Sheppard comes in and makes an instant impact for the Cats against Kansas

Reed Sheppard has made an instant impact for the Cats.

The Kansas Jayhawks punched the Cats in the mouth early, but the Cats were able to scratch and claw back into the game. 

One of the big reasons why the Cats were able to get back into this game was thanks to Reed Sheppard. 

Sheppard made back-to-back threes, stole two passes, and had an assist. 

Coach Calipari often talks about how Sheppard has the best hands he has ever coached, which is what helps him block these shots and steal the ball. 

Sheppard will be so valuable to this team as he will come off the bench and do the dirty work, plus make three-pointers. 

We didn't know how big Sheppard's role would be this season, but what we have seen from the start of the season, he will be a massive part of this team. 

Let's take a look at one of Sheppard's three-pointers that got the Cats back in the ball game against the best team in college hoops.
