Buddy Hield open to a trade elsewhere, but no deal is imminent
Sources tell me that Hield is open to a trade elsewhere, but no deal is imminent, and there aren’t any current substantive talks with any other team. There is no urgency on the part of the Pacers to make a move at this time.

More on this storyline
The handful of execs I spoke to post-show were unanimous in their view that Hield’s looming free agency, with only this coming season left on his current contract at $19.3 million, will complicate Indiana’s efforts to generate offers that feature more than multiple second-round picks attached to the contract(s) needed to match Hield’s salary. -via marcstein.substack.com / September 24, 2023
Grant Afseth: The Dallas Mavericks are among the teams interested in pursuing a Buddy Hield trade with the Indiana Pacers, per @TheSteinLine . More notes: 1.) There is “no traction” in talks involving the Mavs. 2.) The Pacers are “not inclined” to make a trade involving Tim Hardaway Jr. 3.) The Pacers will likely want a “sweetener” in any trade involving Hield, with a real possibility of acquiring a first-round pick in part of a return. -via Twitter / September 24, 2023
