Saying that his average output is 19 points is misleading.
This past season, he had 19 points in 61 games, for a ppg of .31. Prorated over an 82-game schedule, that's 25 points and 17 goals. I know, not great.
In 2021-22, he had 18 points in 43 games, for a ppg of .42. Prorated over an 82-game schedule, that's 34 points. Not bad for a 22 yo, and ahead of Laf.
In 2020-21, he had 17 points in 48 games, for a ppg of .35. Prorated over an 82-game schedule, that's 29 points. Just behind Laf's .37 ppg.
He was getting better every year, and hit 40 points in 2022-23. He should've had another breakout this season if injuries hadn't derailed him. I doubt there's a GM in the league that wouldn't give up a player like Kuz for a young prospect like KK. Just my opinion.
