Buddy Hield: From Bahamas to NBA Legend

Here are some fried facts (hot takes and interesting tidbits) about NBA sharpshooter Buddy Hield:

🏀 From the Bahamas to the NBA

Buddy Hield was born in Freeport, Bahamas, and didn't start playing organized basketball until he was 13 years old.

He grew up idolizing Kobe Bryant and modeled his work ethic after him.

🔥 College Basketball Legend

Hield played at Oklahoma, where he became one of the best scorers in NCAA history.

In his senior year (2015-16), he averaged 25.0 PPG, shot 45.7% from three, and won National Player of the Year.

His epic 46-point game against Kansas in 2016 is still one of the greatest performances in Big 12 history.

💰 Sacramento Kings’ Big Trade Gamble

The Kings traded DeMarcus Cousins in 2017 to acquire Hield (among others), believing he’d be their franchise cornerstone.

He set the Kings’ single-season three-point record (278 in 2018-19)—later broken by himself (282 in 2021-22).

🎯 Elite Three-Point Shooter

Hield is one of the fastest players in NBA history to reach 1,000 career threes (350 games).

He’s consistently top 5 in total threes made per season since entering the league.

Despite being a sniper, he’s never been an All-Star, which many fans consider a snub.

🔄 Traded to the Pacers (Then 76ers)

In 2022, the Kings traded him to the Pacers as part of the Domantas Sabonis deal.

In 2024, he was traded again to the Philadelphia 76ers, where he now provides elite floor-spacing for Joel Embiid.

🎤 Buddy Buckets Nickname

His nickname 'Buddy Buckets' speaks to his scoring ability—but some joke that it should be 'Buddy Threes' because of his deep-range specialty.

🎮 Gamer at Heart

Hield is a huge NBA 2K fan and has been vocal about his player ratings (often arguing he should be higher).

He once challenged De’Aaron Fox to a 1v1 in 2K for $5,000 (but it never happened).

🌍 Bahamian Basketball Ambassador

Along with Deandre Ayton, Hield is helping put Bahamian basketball on the map.

He played a key role in the Bahamas’ near-upset of Team USA in Olympic qualifying (2023).
