Surprise two weeks before the start of training campsince The Athletic reports that Buddy Hield is placed on the transfer list by the Pacers ! The main person concerned is not opposed to it and, if the situation has reached this point, it is because the two camps have not managed to find an agreement for an extension.
At issue: an offer ofIndiana who did not meet the player’s expectations, far from feeling desired by the franchise he joined from Sacramento in February 2022…
Aged (already) 30, Buddy Hield is entering his last year of contract ($19.2 million) and he will therefore be free agent next summer. Suffice it to say that the leaders ofIndianapolis have every interest in not seeing him leave without compensation in a year, while he flirts with an average of 18 points over the last five seasons.
Since his Draft in 2016 (in 6th position), the Bahamian fullback has established himself as one of the best outside shooters in the league. If he has not yet experienced the joys of the playoffs, his some 1,705 3-point baskets and 40% outside success in his career will not fail to attract many teams.
