## High school and college

Reddish attended the Westtown School in [West Chester, Pennsylvania](https://www.edgepedia.org/west-chester-pennsylvania), earned McDonald's All-American honors, and was named Mr. Pennsylvania as a senior in 2018.<sup>[2](https://gleague.nba.com/news/the-san-diego-clippers-acquire-cam-reddish)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[1](https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Cam-Reddish/Summary/81697)</sup> He arrived at Duke as one of the most heralded recruits in the 2018 class, joining a freshman class with [Zion Williamson](https://www.edgepedia.org/zion-williamson) and [RJ Barrett](https://www.edgepedia.org/rj-barrett); all three became NBA lottery picks in 2019, part of a Duke class that made the Blue Devils' 28th NBA lottery pick.<sup>[4](https://goduke.com/news/2019/6/21/211805710)</sup>

His single Duke season (2018-19) produced 13.5 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 1.6 steals per game in 36 games, 35 of them starts, in 29.7 minutes a night.<sup>[2](https://gleague.nba.com/news/the-san-diego-clippers-acquire-cam-reddish)</sup> Early in the season he set a Duke freshman record with seven three-pointers against Army West Point, after matching the school's freshman debut-game record with four steals.<sup>[5](https://clemsontigers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/5480928.pdf)</sup> Playing alongside Williamson and Barrett, he took on more of a support role than the one he had held in high school, and draft analysts noted he never fully adjusted to playing off the ball while also being nagged by injuries.<sup>[6](https://hoopsprospects.com/2019/06/cam-reddish-scouting-report/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[7](https://www.sportingnews.com/au/nba/news/nba-draft-2019-cam-reddish-scouting-report-strengths-weaknesses-and-player-comparison/a5so1qv65xuw1qdao1170e9r9)</sup> He declared for the NBA Draft after that freshman year.<sup>[8](https://www.nba.com/news/duke-freshman-cam-reddish-declares-nba-draft)</sup>

## NBA career

The Atlanta Hawks selected Reddish with the 10th overall pick in the 2019 draft.<sup>[2](https://gleague.nba.com/news/the-san-diego-clippers-acquire-cam-reddish)</sup> As a rookie in 2019-20 he played 58 games and averaged 10.5 points in 26.7 minutes, shooting .384 from the field and .332 from three-point range.<sup>[1](https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Cam-Reddish/Summary/81697)</sup> His 2020-21 season was his most productive by scoring average, 11.2 points per game, though his shooting efficiency dropped to .365 from the field and .262 from three.<sup>[1](https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Cam-Reddish/Summary/81697)</sup>

In January 2022 the Knicks acquired Reddish from Atlanta in a trade that [CBS Sports](https://www.edgepedia.org/cbs-sports) framed as New York betting on the wing's upside while the Hawks gained a pick for a future deal.<sup>[9](https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/cam-reddish-trade-grades-knicks-bet-on-wings-upside-hawks-gain-pick-for-future-deal/)</sup> His role in New York was smaller, 14.4 minutes per game over 15 appearances that season, and at the February 2023 trade deadline he was dealt to the [Portland Trail Blazers](https://www.edgepedia.org/portland-trail-blazers), where he averaged 10.9 points in 27.6 minutes over 20 games.<sup>[1](https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Cam-Reddish/Summary/81697)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[10](https://basketnews.com/players/24311-cameron-reddish/news.html)</sup> He signed with the Los Angeles Lakers for 2023-24 and appeared in 48 games that season at 5.4 points per game, followed by 33 games at 3.2 points in 2024-25 before falling out of the rotation; Los Angeles waived him on March 27, 2025.<sup>[1](https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Cam-Reddish/Summary/81697)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[11](https://www.nba.com/player/1629629/cameron-reddish)</sup>

A February 2025 trade that would have sent Reddish to the [Charlotte Hornets](https://www.edgepedia.org/charlotte-hornets) with [Dalton Knecht](https://www.edgepedia.org/dalton-knecht) and draft assets for center [Mark Williams](https://www.edgepedia.org/mark-williams-basketball) was voided after Williams's physical, so Reddish stayed in Los Angeles until his waiver.<sup>[10](https://basketnews.com/players/24311-cameron-reddish/news.html)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[12](https://fantasy-api.cbssports.com/nba/players/3042251/cam-reddish/fantasy/)</sup>

## After the Lakers

In January 2026 the San Diego Clippers of the [NBA G League](https://www.edgepedia.org/nba-g-league) acquired Reddish from the [Austin Spurs](https://www.edgepedia.org/austin-spurs) in exchange for the Clippers' 2027 first-round draft pick.<sup>[2](https://gleague.nba.com/news/the-san-diego-clippers-acquire-cam-reddish)</sup> In July 2026, Lithuanian club BC Siauliai officially confirmed his signing.<sup>[10](https://basketnews.com/players/24311-cameron-reddish/news.html)</sup> RealGM listed him as an unrestricted free agent, with 2025-26 international-season figures of 14.7 points and 3.8 rebounds per game on .400 shooting.<sup>[1](https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Cam-Reddish/Summary/81697)</sup>

## Playing profile

Scouting reports at the draft consistently described a long, athletic wing with defensive versatility and shot-making upside. [Bleacher Report](https://www.edgepedia.org/bleacher-report)'s analysis of the Hawks' pick suggested his ideal role was a fourth scoring option who could play to his strengths as a shot-maker.<sup>[13](https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2839280-cam-reddishs-2019-nba-draft-scouting-report-analysis-of-hawks-pick)</sup> Reviews of his Atlanta years noted that when his physical gifts did not translate, technical flaws were exposed, including a lack of strength that made it hard to play through contact.<sup>[14](https://www.si.com/nba/hawks/onsi/news/2019-20-player-review-cam-reddish)</sup> His career shooting line of .398 from the field and .322 from three-point range over 254 regular-season games reflects the efficiency questions that followed him from college.<sup>[1](https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Cam-Reddish/Summary/81697)</sup>
