There is no way around it. Buddy Hield is a stud. After being part of the blockbuster DeMarcus Cousins deal, Buddy exploded onto the scene in Sac-Town. His scoring average went up almost 100 percent, and it quickly became clear that he was a great fit on the Kings.

Now, with the addition of George Hill and De’Aaron Fox at the point guard, expect Hield’s numbers to grow even more this year. With solid point guards feeding him the ball, we could see Buddy Hield develop into one of the leagues next superstars. There is no argument, outside of a certain young Phoenix Suns player (still to come), Buddy is clearly the most promising player on this list.

As a basketball fan, you have to be at least intrigued by this young talented Kings roster, even if you want them to lose by 50 every time they play the Suns.
