32-year-old Lakers rookie has become one of the NBA's most entertaining players for all the wrong reasons

Brazilian point guard Marcelo Huertas has become one of the NBA's most entertaining players, but for the wrong reasons.

The 32-year-old is in his first season in the NBA, joining the Lakers on a one-year, minimum-salary contract after playing several years in Europe.

While Huertas has carved out a nice role as a backup point guard for the Lakers, he has become known to the NBA world as an unfortunate victim of some brutal highlights.

It started last week in a game against the Miami Heat. Huertas presented the internet with a gold-wrapped highlight, chucking up two terrible shots in the span of five seconds as he tried to beat the shot clock:

Granted, this is not entirely Huertas' fault, as he was passed to in a bad situation with limited time on the clock. Nonetheless, it wasn't the most impressive one-on-one display the NBA has ever seen.

Later in the same game, Heat point guard Tyler Johnson hit Huertas with a brutal crossover.

Monday night, Huertas was once again the victim of a devastating crossover, this time by Phoenix Suns point guard Brandon Knight.

Again, great move by Knight, but this is not a great look:

Knight, of course, can sympathize. He was the victim of one of the most brutal dunks in NBA history and became the butt of the joke for years. He turned that around by becoming one of the better point guards in the league.

And Huertas is getting his fair share of flak from the NBA world.

SB Nation accurately described Knight's crossover, saying, "Marcelo Huertas is still wandering around Phoenix, wondering where Brandon Knight went."

Others have picked up that defenders going at Huertas might become a trend:

It's not all bad for Huertas. He plays only limited minutes but is averaging seven points and nine assists per 36 minutes, and he is shooting a solid 43.5% from the field and 37.5% from 3-point range.

He has even had some highlights of his own!

While Huertas is still getting adjusted to the NBA, his 32-year-old legs won't get any fresher, and he is already having trouble keeping up with quick point guards. We fear this is just the beginning for poor Marcelo Huertas.
