Buddy Hield
Strengths: Very good scorer. Good inside game with a very smooth stroke from range. Decent handles. Might get close to a steal. Decent strength and quickness.
Weaknesses: Defense and rebounding aren't good.
Scout's Take: Hield apparently made 85 out of 100 threes in a recent workout and also told reporters he thinks he's going to the Magic. Neither of those two things matter much -- we already knew he could shoot, and a leap into the top two would be stunning. Regardless, the elite three-point stroke and an otherwise regular skill-set gives the JJ Redick comps credence. Hield should be able to help you right away.
Ratings: Buddy Hield SG 6'4'' 220 24 B B+ C- C- C- B
Stipulations: None.

Now, that stroke will have to be his calling card, as his the rest of his game is solid but not high-end anywhere else. His ballhandling and decision-making aren’t yet at SLN level, and career variance is high for prolific college guards in his mold (think about J.J. Redick, then think about Jimmer Fredette)
