## Resource

Buddy Hield’s future with the Atlanta Hawks is on hold as the team extends the deadline to decide his fate, giving both sides breathing room to explore trade options or free agency. With his $9.7M salary looming, Hield’s value may lie in his veteran shooting ability — even if his role in Atlanta has shrunk to near nonexistence. Once a playoff spark with Golden State, he’s been sidelined under Quin Snyder, with minimal minutes and no postseason role. This pause could be key: it keeps the Hawks’ options open while giving Hield leverage to secure a better deal before hitting the open market — where his next contract might be significantly smaller.
