Hield provides lightning-quick spacing with elite 3-point shooting. Paired with Butler and Green, his gravity should create more open looks and kick-outs. His shooting strength could push Warriors into higher 3-point volume, boosting fantasy scoring through 3-pointers and points while adding some assists from improved ball movement.

Hield adds elite spacing with a proven 3-point stroke and durability (82 games, 37% from deep). His floor-spacing aligns with Butler’s playmaking, enabling Kerr to deploy multi-guard looks and stretch lineups that stretch opponents and open driving lanes.

Hield’s name surfaces in talks but Golden State won’t surrender him in a sign-and-trade, citing the team’s need for proven shooting behind Curry. The conversation underscores the Warriors’ caution in altering their shooting landscape, even as Murphy’s stock or Moody’s energy could tempt a deal with fewer concessions.

Hield’s sharpshooting is highlighted as a crucial floor-spacer that could maximize Curry’s offensive gravity. His role elevates late-clock scoring options and helps Golden State maintain spacing, enabling Curry to operate with cleaner looks and fewer park-breaking sequences.

Hield is the archetype spacing piece Golden State wants to preserve in a Kuminga sign-and-trade, valued for his elite shooting that sustains the Warriors’ half-court offense and late-game versatility.
