My Take
Luke Kennard is one of those players who quietly earns your respect the more you watch him. A Duke guy drafted 12th overall by Detroit in 2017, he had the pedigree right out of the gate — but the NBA is brutal, and he's had to carve out his role the hard way, bouncing from the Pistons to the Clippers to Memphis to Atlanta and eventually landing with the Lakers. What he brings is that smooth, almost effortless shooting touch that six-foot-six wings dream of; his three-point percentage with the Clippers was genuinely elite by any measure. He's never been the guy on the poster, but the coaches who know basketball know exactly what he does for a lineup. I'd love to see him get one consistent situation and just cook.
