The Sacramento Kings have started off the NBA season with a respectable 3-3 record. They have had a pretty difficult schedule to start and have picked up a few nice wins along the way.
Sacramento has road wins against the Portland Trail Blazers, Phoenix Suns, and New Orleans Pelicans. They have yet to win a home game, losing two contests to the Utah Jazz and Golden State Warriors.
Luke Walton has the team playing well offensively once again and is showing signs of life defensively. They are still 25th to start the season in defensive rating, but that is an improvement over the record-setting defensive rating they had last season when they registered the worst number in NBA history.
Eventually, the Sacramento Kings are going to make some moves. They have two players, Marvin Bagley II and Buddy Hield, that have been on the block a while. Bagley isn’t even in the rotation, but Hield is and continues to buoy his trade value.

Buddy Hield is knocking down 4.2 3-pointers per game at a 40.3 percent clip. He is averaging 17.3 points per game, which is third on the team despite coming off the bench with the second unit. For a player many presume will be traded, he is certainly helping his stock to make sure the Kings get as good of a return package as they can.
Who could the Sacramento Kings be targeting in a trade for Buddy Hield? Here are three players Sacramento should be looking to require in a return package for their sharpshooter.
