Our view

The market sees the 17-point season and assumes health brings it back; the data on played-hurt seasons says the opposite — those players decline further, not bounce — and our 13.5-point line owns that fade. The 86% foul shooting and 2 threes keep him useful, but 50 games is the honest availability read. Let someone else pay for the bounce-back.

De'Andre Hunter enters 2026-27 at #224 on our board — Round 19 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 13.5 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 25.5 minutes a night. The value is built on turnovers and free-throw percentage, with assists the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-assists builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability is the swing factor — we expect about 51 games, which is priced into his draft value.
