Everything said about Sexton being a good stats bad team guy could haven been said (and was) about Devin Booker and Zach LaVine when they were Sexton's age. He is 2 years younger than Booker and 4 years younger than LaVine. I remember when they said the same thing about Kyrie before LeBron got to the Cavs. Heck, people were saying the same thing about Trae Young 3 months ago. At the end of the day a 22 year old putting up 24 points a game in the NBA is no small thing.
My whole thing about trading KP is I'm not interested in just dumping his salary for the sake of dumping his salary. I want a 2nd star. If the Mavs don't think KP will ever be salvaged into something resembling a 2nd star, I want them to parlay him into someone who could be .. and I think Sexton could be. I'm not interested in dumping him for PJ Washington so they can go bottom-middle tier shopping in free agency just for the sake of getting him out the building.
The talking heads are all saying that Kidd's strength is in player development. Get Sexton and have him make him a star.
