Buddy Hield Could Request Trade From Kings If He Remains Out Of Starting Lineup
The Sacramento Kings replaced Buddy Hield in the starting lineup last month with Bogdan Bogdanovic.
Hield signed a four-year, $94 million extension with the Kings before the start of the season, but Bogdanovic will be a restricted free agent this offseason and the franchise would like to retain him.
A source with knowledge of Hield\'s thinking said he could request a trade if he remains displeased with his role. Hield is paid starter money and believes he should be a starter in the NBA.
Hield has already shown a willingness to be publicly critical of Luke Walton.
Bogdanovic is one of Hield\'s best friends on the team.
