Mark Turgeon admits he didn’t think Kevin Huerter had a future in the NBA when he recruited him to play at the University of Maryland. It wasn’t until the latter half of his freshman season that the head coach thought Huerter could possibly make it in the league, after three or four years in college, that is.
But by the start of his sophomore year, it was evident that not only could Huerter go play in the league but that he might be ready to leave sooner than expected. So, Turgeon told the shooting guard’s parents to start doing research on agents and the draft process.
