Jeremy Woo from Sports Illus. Projects Huerter as 18th Pick to the Spurs in the 1st Round
Height: 6’7″ | Weight: 195 | Age: 19 | Last: 47
Stats: 14.8 PPG, 3.4 APG, 41.7% 3FG
Perhaps the biggest winner at the draft combine (while playing through an injured finger in his shooting hand), Huerter put on a display in drills, made jumpers and slick passes in the scrimmage, and then shut it down on day two. While the word coming into the week was that he was heavily considering returning to Maryland, the quality of his showing seems to have forced the issue. Huerter was a good bet for the first round next year, and that timetable has accelerated. His size, shooting stroke and ability to make difficult shots off the catch and dribble are all high-level traits for a two-guard, and he tested well athletically, which didn’t hurt. His ability to make quick decisions and space the floor would fit nicely in San Antonio.
Wow, playing for Popovich!!!!
Also Projects: Bruno Fernando as 34th pick
