The Atlanta Hawks progressed to the Eastern Conference Finals on the back of a playoff-best 27 points from Kevin Huerter. The 6’7″ wing out of Maryland has so often been the wingman to either John Collins or Trae Young. In the seventh game, he was the main man.
Huerter is the glue guy who keeps a team going throughout the season. He simply gives the team what it needs, when it needs it. Due to this, he is always filling up the box score.
