Just as the Hawks look to build off last year's 29-53 season, guard Kevin Huerter, a key cog in the team's young core, will look to take a leap his second year in Atlanta. As a rookie, Huerter averaged 9.7 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.9 steals in 75 games (59 starts).

In the second installment of the AJC's Know Your Hawks series (watch video), Huerter discusses what elements of his game he worked on this offseason, what it's like having two other former Maryland players on the team and much more.

Check out the first installment of the series to learn more about rookie De'Andre Hunter.
