Fans Predict Buddy Heild Will Become A Lakers Soon, Participate In Purple And Gold At The Three Pointer All-Star Contest

The Lakers are not having a good season at present. They have made it very difficult for themselves to qualify for the playoffs. The Lakers need to maintain their winning streak. Consistency is where the team is suffering the most. In the last match against the Indiana Pacers, they returned to their much-needed winning way.

A few days ago, the Lakers fell to the 13th seed, but after the last match, they are back up to the 12th seed at the Western Conference table. The next game is on Sunday against the New Orleans Pelicans. The fans would be hoping the team could continue the winning momentum. 

The Front Office is constantly on the lookout for possible new entries. The Lakers are keen to bring in exciting international talents. After acquiring the Japanese Rui Hachimura, they currently have their eyes on the player from the Bahamas. Buddy Hield now plays for the Indiana Pacers and is a 30-year-old but talented player.

He sometimes plays as a shooting guard and again as a small forward. The Lakers\’ front office has been talking about the Hield trade for a while now. The Lakers fans are eager to have Buddy on their team. The trade deadline is very near, and some decision needs to be taken real fast about the long time plan of bringing in Buddy Hield.

Scott Agness, Indiana Pacers beat writer, says that Buddy Hield is ready to participate in the contest of three-point in the time of the weekend for the All-Star of this year. After hearing this news, the Lakers fans are kind of sure that by the time of the All-Star weekend, Buddy Hield will dawn the jersey of the Los Angeles Lakers.

Fans are flooding social media, especially Twitter, showing their hopes for him to represent the Lakers team very soon. They are sure Buddy Hield will be part of the team by the time he takes part in the All-Star games. The fans believe the Front Office will figure out a way to bring in the Bahamian. And give him a chance to be on the court side by side with LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

Buddy Hield, 30, has been in great form recently, with an average of 42.5% shooting three-pointers in the ongoing season. Furthermore, a lot of problems for the Lakers will get over if he joins the roster. The squad is currently struggling with the issue of having many players good at shooting outside the arc. Hence Hield would be a valuable entry. 

The three-point contest is supposed to be held on Saturday of All-Star, scheduled for February 18 in Salt Lake City at Vivint Arena. Will the Lakers finally make the deal to sign the talented 30-year-old? This discussion started a long time ago and seems to be a never-ending process. Fans of the Los Angeles Lakers are all eagerly waiting for the next update on Buddy Hield.
