Okay… yes, I got bored and decided to bite on the DeMar to the Kings rumor.
Kevin Huerter is actually good! (even if he's a a ginger :)) He had a down year this past season but that seems like a fluke. While watching his film, I kept thinking he could tighten up some things and get better. His D is meh but looks like he has the tools to be better on that end… he should definitely shoot more: he's taking 6 threes a game but looks like he could go 8-9 (just don't watch his 3-point contest tho 😉 ).
I've never really focused on Huerter but the more I watched, the more I liked him. He'd be a great get in a DeMar trade.
Stream of consciousness notes…
KEVIN HUERTER SHALLOW DIVE
- great length at 6'7" but skinny; more of a 2 than a 3
- good availability through his career thus far
- quick; good movement/cutting and shows respectable athleticism
- good handle can put in on the floor and can keep his dribble alive in traffic
- good playmaker… makes good reads; nice passes
- movement shooter with legit spacing on decent volume
- nice feel for the game
- willing defender; active hands; decent on help
- not a HORRIBLE defender but not great and inconsistent; can die on screens
- numbers dipped last year and wasn't great in the playoffs
- there's some upside there

Zach to the Kings was actually the rumor. DeMar to the Lakers or Heat.
Red Velvet is one of the best nicknames in the league
Solid player, I think the times past on his ceiling, he is what he is atp. Was frustratingly inconsistent during big moments for the hawks and kings good shooter just so streaky
White boy bulls I love it finally time we get some kukoc and longely action back
