This is ok. Maybe the best we could realistically do. Not sure how much he will actually play though. Good depth at least.

His lifetime average is in the mid 40s. So this means we traded Royce and Grayson and a 2033 pick for Bridges and Kennard and a earlier highly protected pick.

Kennard is fine as a shooter, but I would have preferred to see a player with more ability to create a shot.

He moves well without the ball and he gets the ball off in very limited space. He also handles the ball well. He will be fine. I just think he is much of a defender.

The way I see it, we have plenty of guys that can create a shot, but not that many that can just flat out shoot the 3.

And two years at $13 million is reasonable for Luke Kennard.

Also, who knows, maybe Koby Brea takes the next step.
