As part of the New Orleans Pelicans Media Day festivities, Buddy Hield held a Periscope Q&A with fans this past Friday. It hummed along largely as expected, proving rather uneventful as he responded to typical questions and comments while slurping on a mango smoothie from Smoothie King. For instance, Hield stated that Stephen Curry is his favorite active NBA player and conch salad as his favorite food.
Then, at the 4:55 mark of the video, someone asked, “Why couldn’t we draft Murray instead of you?”
Hield didn’t beat around the bush.
