I was looking at his stats and he is a career 43.9% 3 point shooter. Last year his 3 point field goal % was 45% which was 2nd best in the league.
Although his defense isn’t that great, I don’t think it’s bad enough to pass on someone who shoots the ball so well. I believe he’s a much better defender than Trae Young. 3 point shooting is such a valuable skill in today’s NBA. So what gives?
Gary Trent just got the minimum recently, and there are still guys available that I would want more than Kennard like Tyus Jones and Lonnie Walker that can’t find deals so far.
