Hield finished with 20 points (7-10 FG, 6-9 3Pt), two rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals in 25 minutes during Monday's 130-120 victory over the Trail Blazers.
This was the 10th game of the season with at least 20 points from Hield. However, his production has been all over the place, making him a volatile fantasy option. Over his last 10 games, Hield has averaged 11.5 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.9 steals and 2.2 three-pointers.

Warriors' Buddy Hield: Logs team-high 16 points from bench
Rotowire
Hield contributed 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 0-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals in 20 minutes during Tuesday's 128-92 win over the Hornets.
Hield played only 20 minutes in the decisive win, but the sharpshooting guard delivered from deep with four three-pointers in the contest. The Warriors emptied the bench once the game was well in hand, and options further down the depth chart were a major reason for Hield's decreased usage.

Warriors' Buddy Hield: Drills five threes in backup role
Rotowire
Hield chipped in 22 points (8-11 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 26 minutes during Friday's 132-108 victory over Sacramento.
Hield is hard to stop when his perimeter shot is dialed in, and the Warriors were happy to ride his hot hand on the way to a decisive victory. The sharpshooter logged 12 starting appearances before being replaced by Brandin Podziemski in the first unit earlier in the week. While he scored only two points in his first game after the demotion, he came alive and delivered on a night when many other role players stepped forward.

Warriors' Buddy Hield: Runner-up in 3-Point Contest
Rotowire
Hield finished second behind Tyler Herro in the Starry 3-Point Contest after scoring 23 points in the final round.
Hield set the tone in the first round with 31 points, which tied Warriors teammate Stephen Curry's record from the 2021 competition. However, Hield missed his first seven shot attempts in the final round and couldn't overcome his slow start, ultimately losing by a single point and falling short of capturing his second 3-Point Contest victory. Hield is shooting 36.3 percent from three on 7.0 3PA/G this season, though that number has dropped to 31.8 percent since the beginning of January.

Warriors' Buddy Hield: Solid effort in loss
Rotowire
Hield finished Thursday's 120-112 loss to the Lakers with 15 points (5-13 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and five assists over 35 minutes.
It was a solid effort by Hield, but he continues to get sporadic playing time in Golden State's starting lineup. The veteran sharpshooter has failed to reach the 20-minute marker in four of his last nine contests, during which he's averaging 9.7 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.1 threes. As a result, Hield is likely to remain a volatile fantasy option on a nightly basis, and it's possible the incoming Jimmy Butler takes Hield's place in the Warriors' first unit once he's ready to make his team debut.

He's produced five combined steals and blocks in back-to-back games, something he's done only once in his first 38 appearances this season. Hield is also beginning to find his rhythm from beyond the arc again -- he's drained multiple threes in five straight games, averaging 14.6 points, 4.0 boards, 3.2 assists, 3.0 treys and 1.8 steals over that stretch.
