Buddy Hield: Finding New LIfe WIth the Golden State Warriors

The NBA is quite a tough league to be in given the amount of player movement that could happen during someone's career. Buddy Hield has been quite the journeyman over the past few years with the Sacramento Kings, Indiana Pacers, and Philadelphia 76ers. Thankfully, the Golden State Warriors signed him and it looks like he is going to have a very stable role alongside Steve Kerr and Stephen Curry now.
Buddy Hield inked a two-year deal after a sign and trade during the 2024 offseason. The Warriors clearly needed him because they let Klay Thompson walk and guys like Brandin Podziemski are still fairly young to carry a big rotational load. Steve Kerr and the front office's decision worked out well.
The Warriors sit alone at the top of the Western Conference and look like they could reignite their dynasty once more. They even defeated the Boston Celtics who are the defending champions.
Hield feels very much at home with Steve Kerr and Stephen Curry. He even talked some smack after vanquishing the 2024 NBA Champions: ""What do you think? I mean, it's a statement. If we don’t win, everyone says, ‘Oh, they ain’t played nobody.’ You gotta come out here and make a statement, right? That's how the basketball world talks."
