Reading article after article, Kevin Huerter wrinkled his brow. It didn't matter the website or publication. It didn't matter the author or even the subject during his Hawks tenure. Huerter kept seeing the same pictures from his rookie year with Atlanta. So this season, his first as a member of the Sacramento Kings, the 24-year-old amended his on-court appearance. Something sentimental and purposeful for a new chapter in new colors. Now when you Google the man who's pouring threes inside Golden 1 Center, a thick headband floods the image results.
SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA - MARCH 24: Kevin Huerter #9 of the Sacramento Kings drives to the basket past Landry Shamet #14 of the Phoenix Suns during the third quarter of an NBA basketball game at Golden 1 Center on March 24, 2023 in Sacramento, California.

Sacramento operates what may finish as the most lethal offense in NBA history, currently blitzing opponents for 119.6 points per 100 possessions, according to Cleaning the Glass, and Huerter’s dribble-handoff action with All-Star big man Domantas Sabonis serves as a foundation of that attack. “He’s what makes our offense go,” Huerter said. “He’s the key to the puzzle.” Their synergy sparks.
Bogdan Bogdanovic, a fellow Atlanta swingman and Huerter’s close friend, underwent June knee surgery that cast a shadow over the veteran’s own trade prospects. Huerter, meanwhile, was entering the first season of what league executives considered a four-year, $65 million value contract. He was the player rival front offices wanted to pry from the Hawks’ crowded backcourt, all while Huerter’s group of vacationing friends settled into a sprawling villa in Ibiza.
After a stellar showing at the combine, and a blistering performance in a pre-draft workout with the Lakers, Los Angeles promised Huerter the franchise would select him No. 25 in the 2018 NBA Draft. Huerter, though, had already visited with the Hawks, the same day Lloyd Pierce walked into his first interview for Atlanta’s head coaching job.
