Source: Kings agree to terms on four-year extension with Buddy Hield

A league source tells Sam Amick of The Athletic that the Kings have agreed to terms on a four-year extension with Buddy Hield worth $86 million in guaranteed money and with $20 million in possible incentives.

More details, per source: The incentives in Buddy Hield’s Kings extension are team and player based, including things like All-Star appearances and Finals appearances. His salary declines 8% year over year, and is slated to take up just 13.5% of the cap in the fourth year. — Sam Amick (@sam_amick) October 21, 2019

More info on Buddy Hield’s contract extension with the Kings, per source: While the guaranteed money is $86 million, nearly $10 million of the $20 million in incentives are considered likely/within reach (three-point triggers that he has hit before; playoff appearance) — Sam Amick (@sam_amick) October 21, 2019



We’ll have much more to come on this developing story soon.

As Amick notes, it’s a big win for both sides to avoid a breakup here ahead of Monday’s extension deadline.
