He's a FA this summer and entirely gettable with the MLE. The Kings probably want to cut Huerters deal in this move. I wouldn't mind it, then the Kings have a nice little versatile G/F trio in the form of the Celtics with Brown, Keon, and Carter and if it didn't work, they at least cut some $$$ to safely use that MLE this summer in some other way. Maybe on someone like DFS or Portis.
This is the problem when people look at nothing but height. Remember, Brown started to get noticed because of his defense on big SF's like Durant and he played almost exclusively at PF with the Nets. Also, the Nuggets were entirely reliant on him being able to switch 4-5 positions defensively. He was probably the key reason the Nuggets won that year. He's like any other role playing defender, not worth big money. Look at Ben Wallace. For the right team, they help but you have to have the needs.
Oh man. This is it. Fully addresses our biggest weaknesses (back up wing, back up big) and won't break the bank. Works on the trade machine for huerter straight up. Add as many seconds as necessary.
Huerter as a buy-low probably makes the most sense for a rebuilding/bad team too. Like it for both sides

I don't hate it - I'm not sure about Martin's wingspan, but he's certainly not "big-wing" size and he can't shoot, so he's not a be-all end-all there as a backup wing unless his D is miles better than Huerter's. Richards as a backup big is at least a rim protector, and maybe he's a better option than Len?
The problem if anything is that we send our best salary piece in Huerter to get some end of the rotation probably (?) upgrades that might be at a "rearranging deck chairs" level of impact. It's no disaster, but if there's a deal to be had where Huerter brings us back a legit upgrade, that's where I would want to look first.

Them knees ain’t younger though.
the dude is a liability on defense who is also afraid of shooting threes to a degree that he makes DeMar look like Steph Curry. He’s also injured so often that when you do build a team to play around him it doesn’t matter because he’s not around long enough for you to build any momentum.

I think Richard's is a pretty significant upgrade on Len. Hes shown he can handle a starting role and massively produce. Len has struggled this year to even show he's still NBA caliber.
I am irrationally high on Cody Martin though. Hes struggled with injuries, but anytime he's on the floor, he's an impact role player. He's a really great passer too, think he's thrive with Domas.
A deal like this is sort of the best case scenario to me in a Huerter trade. It's addressing 2 big needs with 2 good role players. Huerter career is obviously significantly higher than both, but we can't deny is tremendous season long shooting slump and that he's a "sell low" to make room for Carter
