After deciding to declare for the draft late in the spring, Kevin Huerter had to make a difficult decision.
Huerter went from draft afterthought to eventual top-20 selection after an eye-opening combine performance. He was expected to return going into the event, showing up without an agent and leaving with the entire league on notice.
Despite the attention and talks of a first-round guarantee, Huerter still took until the early-entry withdrawal deadline to make his decision. It seems like an easy choice in hindsight, with Huerter being selected 19th overall by the Hawks, but he was pulled back to College Park by the allure of an improved team.
