Lakers reportedly still interested in Buddy Hield

Adding a shooter like Hield would help the Lakers a lot.

The Los Angeles Lakers are once again interested in Buddy Hield, according to Chris Hayens of Yahoo Sports.

(Via Bleacher Report): “League sources have told me the Lakers have reached out to the Kings about a Talen Horton-Tucker package for Hield. Still trying to make that happen. Obviously the Kings are like, ‘No. We feel like there’s more lucrative deals out there.’ The Kings are going to be active. They’ve got a whole bunch of people calling them.”

For his part, Hield is struggling to express himself at the level of his first seasons in the NBA.

The guard  is averaging 14.9 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists per game, shooting 38% from the field, 37% from beyond the arc (9.1 attempts per game) and 87% from free throw line.
