Buddy Hield makes NBA history in Golden State Warriors vs. Utah Jazz

Buddy Hield’s arrival in the Bay Area was noisy. Well, the Golden State Warriors have started their first two games of the season, but the message still stands. He helped the team to a 140-107 victory in their season opener, and he torched the Utah Jazz in the first half of their second game.

The journeyman sharpshooter made his impact with a few other franchises before landing with the Warriors last season, but he has more than made his presence known since donning a Golden State jersey.

In the first half against the Jazz, Hield scored 24 points while knocking down six of his seven three-point attempts to help the team get a big lead. After the fast start, a stat was revealed via @WarriorsMuse that Hield made NBA history with three-pointers made in his first two games with a franchise after knocking down 11 three-pointers in two games.

The catch? Hield did that in just six quarters. He definitely had a hard time with his new team.

This was one of two ways Hield made history in this match, as he also moved into 21st all-time in threes.

Via Warriors on X: “We’re moving up. Buddy is now 21st all-time in three.”

After his first game with the club, Hield drew the experience back to his time playing college basketball when he was a superstar for the Oklahoma Sooners.

“I don’t want to bring it up, but I think the last time I was this free was in Oklahoma,” Hield said.

It appears Hield has a place within a franchise that helped revolutionize the three-point shot, and playing in Steve Kerr’s system will only help him thrive.
