A familiar tale for Buddy…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\"Golden<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

When Buddy Hield led the Golden State Warriors to a blistering start as one of the best players in the league over the first two weeks of the season, rival fans were quick to point out that it had been an ongoing trend for the veteran sharpshooter throughout his career.<\/p>\n

While Hield was trying to proclaim that he hadn’t been this free since his college days at Oklahoma, fans of his former teams — most recently the Indiana Pacers and Philadelphia 76ers — were quick to assure others that it wouldn’t last long.<\/p>\n

Warriors have come to a Buddy Hield realization others warned about<\/h2>\n

Hield was indeed electric through his first eight games, averaging 21.1 points on over 50% shooting from 3-point range to help Golden State to a surprise 7-1 record. But since then it’s been a major struggle for the 31-year-old who’s averaged just 10 points on less than 40% shooting from the floor and 34.6% from beyond the arc.<\/p>\n

Warrior fans have been quick to realize that the Hield cycle is indeed real — that he usually lights it up for his new team to start, yet quickly descends into an inconsistent offensive player with huge defensive concerns.<\/p>\n
