While the overall moves taken by Daryl Morey and the front office at last week’s trade deadline were fairly divisive, the acquisition of Buddy Hield from the Indiana Pacers was almost universally considered to be a win for the Philadelphia 76ers. The 31-year-old guard has been in Sixers trade rumors since back when Philadelphia was shopping Ben Simmons and Hield was with the Sacramento Kings. A career 40.1 three-pointer shooter, Buddy is willing and able to hoist from behind the arc at a high volume, a skill set sorely lacking on this current edition of the Sixers.
