"denigrate"? :roll: just spent enough time in every SAC fan's trade offer or SAC board to get the idea they've soured on him. I'd probably do your version...but only if I see whoever THE guy is drop there.


Fan opinions don’t change the value of an oversized SG that is a 40% 3pt shooter and can handle the ball.

It’s a premium in the League now. Bigs are very available at the moment.


.361 ain’t 40%, it’s more like league avg…and then what have you got beyond the 3pt shooting? A trade for Huerter - I DID propose it- is a hope that he reverts to previous form, hope that he once again shows any signs of offensive creation, and hope that your exceptional defensive schemes can hide him in a league that’s making that harder and harder to do. I assume SAC doesn’t have the cap space to do it without sending something out.

Btw, Wendell Carter shot .374 from 3 last year AND played defense AND rebounded AND got to the line over 3x as often AND scored more ppg, despite playing next to two 20 ppg guys in the frontcourt with him. Huerter is Kennard, or GTJ, or Beasley, or 10 other guys that will make less than him next year. Good weapon to have, but JAG… WCJ is not elite at anything, but he’s also pretty good at everything.



i HOPE jett can shoot and play a huerter type role ..and magic are paying him...save the 35 mill over next 2 yrs give him a shot...magic at least 2 yrs out anyway

I started the thread looking for a pick in their range, with a team that would welcome WCJ…all presuming that the Bridges trade made Claxton a UFA possibility for ORL…otherwise, I’m pretty happy sticking with WCJ- even if ORL gets Claxton…I certainly didn’t come here seeking Huerter- I probably did a few seasons ago, but that ship has sailed.
