KEVIN HUERTER NEWS

Sheds injury tag and scores 23 Huerter closed with 23 points (8-12 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 115-108 loss to Portland.

Impact If Wednesday's game is any indication, Huerter has landed in a plum spot with the Kings. Huerter consistently played around 30 minutes and was a starter roughly two-thirds of the time during his four-year tenure with Atlanta. Due to his sharpshooting skills beyond the arc, Huerter fits the mold left by Buddy Hield. Although there is ample competition on the depth chart, it appears that the 24-year-old will have the first shot at the off-guard position.

Says he'll play in opener Huerter (ankle) told the media he'll play in Wednesday's regular-season opener against Portland, James Ham of ESPN 1320 in Sacramento reports.

Impact Huerter was listed as questionable coming into the day due to a sore left ankle, but he assured reporters that it won't keep him out of the lineup on Opening Night. The ex-Hawk is expected to hold down the starting shooting guard spot alongside De'Aaron Fox to begin the season. Huerter closed last season averaging 12.1 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.2 made threes per contest.

Questionable for season opener Huerter (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Trail Blazers.

Expected to be available Wednesday Huerter (ankle) is expected to play during Wednesday's opener against the Trail Blazers, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Practices Monday Huerter (ankle) returned to practice Monday, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Huerter missed Sacramento's preseason finale on Friday but was able to return to practice in a limited fashion Monday. The 24-year-old was seen doing push-ups instead of sprints at practice, indicating he may not be 100 percent quite yet. While his status is up in the air for Wednesday's season opener against the Trail Blazers, Huerter remains the intended starting shooting guard for the upcoming campaign.

Won't play Friday Huerter (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's preseason matchup with the Lakers.

Impact Huerter also did not practice Thursday due to an ankle injury he suffered in Wednesday's preseason win over the Suns. His status for the team's regular-season opener against Portland next Wednesday is uncertain. Huerter is in line to be the Kings' starting shooting guard when he returns.

Doesn't practice Thursday Huerter didn't practice Thursday due to ankle soreness, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact Huerter was announced as the Kings' starting shooting guard last week, and he tallied 13 points, four rebounds and three assists in 20 minutes during Wednesday's preseason win over the Suns. However, he sustained an ankle injury during the narrow victory. It's unclear whether the issue will impact the 24-year-old's availability for Friday's preseason finale against the Lakers or Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Trail Blazers.

Wins starting job Kings coach Mike Brown said Friday that Huerter will be the team's starting shooting guard, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Impact Huerter tallied five points, three rebounds and two assists in 14 minutes in Monday's preseason opener. While these numbers aren't eye-popping, the 24-year-old has done enough in training camp to win the starting job over Malik Monk, Davion Mitchell and Terence Davis.

Traded to Sacramento Huerter was traded to Sacramento in exchange for Justin Holiday, Maurice Harkless and a future first-round pick from Atlanta on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Huerter spent the first four seasons of his career in Atlanta. The Maryland product is set to compete amongst Malik Monk and Davion Mitchell for playing time. Huerter has a shot at starting come opening day of the season, but fantasy expectations shouldn't be too high with the Kings' offense presumably running through De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis.
