The Kevin Huerter Show is BACK–and this time, the guys were able to meet up in Portland!

Huerter sat down with Carmichael Dave and Jason Ross to discuss the Sacramento Kings’ postseason clinch as fans around the 916 celebrate the end of the 16-season playoff drought.

In his first year with the Kings, Huerter has been an impactful presence on the offensive end–especially from beyond the arc, as ‘Red Velvet”s 194 made three-point field goals are the seventh-most during a single season in franchise history.
