Kevin Huerter is on the move again.
The Shenendehowa product and seven-year NBA veteran was traded from the Sacramento Kings to the Chicago Bulls this weekend as part of a three-team deal including the San Antonio Spurs.
Point guard De’Aaron Fox, Huerter’s now-former Kings teammate, is one of the centerpieces of the trade. Fox is headed to San Antonio. The deal sends Zach LaVine from Chicago to Sacramento, Zach Collins from San Antonio to Chicago and Huerter from the Kings to the Bulls. That’s according to two people with knowledge of the discussions who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the trade has yet to be approved by the league.
There is also a slew of draft capital in the agreement, with Sacramento set to get at least three first-round picks, one of the people said.
Huerter has averaged 11.5 points in his career, first with Atlanta and then with the Kings after playing at the University of Maryland following a stellar high school career at Shen. He’ll also benefit from a fresh start after coming off the bench 28 times in 43 appearances with Sacramento this season.
