While preparing to write this player preview for Buddy Hield, I quickly realized that I was so focused on his game that I didn't even know the real name of the New Orleans Pelicans highest profile acquisition since Anthony Davis. Buddy Hield was born Chavano Rainier Hield. The Bahamian baller was given the nickname Buddy by his mother who got the idea from the 90's television show Married with Children — which had a character named Bud Bundy. While Bud was a good guy, basketball fans are hoping Buddy plays more like Al Bundy during his illustrious football career at Polk High.
