Buddy Hield's college career is among the most decorated in NCAA history. In 2016, he became the first player in over a decade to sweep all four major National Player of the Year awards, a feat that put him in the company of legends like Larry Bird and Michael Jordan. He led the nation in three-pointers and guided Oklahoma to its first Final Four since 2002. In the NBA, he set the Sacramento Kings' career three-point record and holds the franchise's single-season mark. His consistency as a deep threat has made him a respected veteran across multiple teams.
