I don't know about the previous 2 games but I thought he made a positive impact last night.
He had decent minutes at the beginning of the year. He wasn't a huge contributor but never seemed like a major liability beyond obvious freshman playing issues.
I'd like to see more Purchase. That kid isn't afraid to get involved in the paint despite being unathletic and skinny.

I want him in there too. Once he gets his confidence back, he Is a real threat from 3.

Also, the old adage that you can't teach size is being disproven by Reed.
He is a 7'2" center trying to play like a small forward. He bends at the waist on defense making himself as small as possible and doesn't move his feet and then tries to time his jump to block a shot.
Stand your tall, lanky arse up, hold your long, lanky arse arms up and protect the basket. Forcing bad shots is just as good as blocking a good shot. Leaning over and fouling someone every 12 seconds isn't helpful.
