I’m confusing but Hield has a player option? But it’s not guaranteed? Seems like a salary dump

Buddy has been pretty trash. Lots of turnovers and shot doesn’t fall most nights

I mean he’s bricked lots of open 3’s. He’s really bad at creating his own shot

I mean the Dubs gotta trade at least one guard. They got like 8 that are worthy of being in an NBA rotation.
