Ignore his worst category (turnovers) and he's worth 0.75.
High-risk league-winner, now with a sharper role question. Before knee surgery ended his year at 38 games he was a top-40 monster — 17/5/7 with 2.2 steals as Milwaukee's lead guard — but the offseason rewrote that job: Herro arrives to run the offense, so we shave the scoring a touch. The steals-plus-dimes engine still wins 9-cat weeks, and our 58-game line is the warning label. A mid-round dart, not a cornerstone.
Kevin Porter Jr. enters 2026-27 at #61 on our board — Round 6 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 15.0 points, 4.7 rebounds and 6.5 assists in 28.9 minutes a night. The value is built on steals and assists, with turnovers the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-turnovers builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability is the swing factor — we expect about 58 games, which is priced into his draft value.
