Buddy Hield scores 34 with 6 treys, ties season-high 7 assists in Kings' loss
Sacramento Kings shooting guard Buddy Hield scored 34 points (14-of-24 field goals) with 4 rebounds, 7 assists, 6 3-pointers, and 1 turnover in 35.3 minutes of a 126-120 road loss to the Boston Celtics on Thursday.
What It Means:
Hield notched his first 30-point game in March after hitting the mark twice over the final three games in February. He had combined for just 13-of-43 shots (30.2 percent) in the previous two contests, so this performance may get him back on track. The Kings visit the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday in the second half of a back-to-back set.
Hield scored 48.3 FanDuel points in the loss. numberFire's models expect him to score 31.5 FanDuel points on Friday, at a cost of $6,800.
