Buddy Hield

SG, Sacramento Kings

Buddy Hield had an awful night shooting the ball in the NBA's return on Friday, going just 1-for-8 from deep and finishing with six points (2-for-13 FGs) and four rebounds in 19 minutes.

Hield's shot was not there on Friday and head coach Luke Walton didn't hesitate to leave him on the bench. De'Aaron Fox stole the show on the offensive end for the Kings, dropping 39 points. Hield has at least seven more games to improve his stock heading into 2020-21 but he always finds a way to get himself into Walton's doghouse. Friday's game was not an encouraging sign for Hield, to say the least.
