The Golden State Warriors are reportedly in discussions to acquire Buddy Hield in a sign-and-trade with the Philadelphia 76ers. Hield, who was the No. 6 overall pick in the 2016 NBA Draft, played for both the Indiana Pacers and the 76ers last season after a midseason trade. If the trade goes through, he will join the Warriors in the Bay Area and be a good fit for the team.
For years, the Warriors have been led by Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, known as the Splash Brothers. However, Thompson recently left in free agency to join the Dallas Mavericks, leaving a void for 3-point shooting on the team. Hield, a prolific 3-point shooter, could fill that gap. With four seasons in which he made over 270 3-pointers, Hield is known for his accuracy from beyond the arc.
The Warriors have been making changes to their roster this offseason in an effort to build a more cost-effective team. They waived Chris Paul and let Thompson go, but have added players like De’Anthony Melton and Kyle Anderson. Hield would bring shooting volume to replace Thompson, while Melton and Anderson contribute defense and playmaking skills, respectively. The Warriors may also be pursuing Utah Jazz star Lauri Markkanen to bolster their roster even further.
