Pacers working on finding a potential Buddy Hield trade after extensions talks stalled out
After contract extension negotiations stalled out, Buddy Hield and the Indiana Pacers have started a dialogue to work on finding a potential trade with another team, league sources say. Hield is open to a trade elsewhere, according to rival team sources, but no deal is imminent and there aren’t any current substantive talks with any other team. The Pacers did offer Hield an extension in recent weeks, but it’s believed their proposal did not make the seven-year guard feel desired, league sources said.

Been on the phone the last few hours confirming + gathering more context re: Buddy Hield & the Pacers.
There’s many factors at play here and the big picture is interesting.

There is a real case that Buddy Hield is the 2nd-best 3-point shooter in the NBA.
Outside of Steph, there are only 12 times in history where a player has averaged 40% from 3 on at least 8 3PA/G for a season.
Buddy has AVERAGED 40.3% from 3 on 8.3 3PA/G OVER THE LAST SIX SEASONS – 8:02 PM
