Makes impact from long range Hield produced 15 points (4-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, two steals and an assist in 19 minutes off the bench during Sunday's preseason loss to the Nuggets.

Impact The veteran wing was picked up from the Hornets at the end of September to provide some experience, and a moveable contract, to the Bulls' second unit, but while he's with Chicago, Hield's long-range shooting will help spread the floor for young building blocks like Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson. Hield's coming off a disappointing 2025-26 campaign split between Atlanta and Golden State, but prior to last season he hadn't shot below 36.6 percent from three-point range or averaged fewer than 2.2 treys in any of the prior eight seasons.

SEPTEMBER 26 • SI.COM

On the move again to Chicago The Bulls acquired Hield (and cash) from the Hornets on Saturday in exchange for Rob Dillingham, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Impact Hield was recently traded to Charlotte on Tuesday but is on the move again to Chicago. The 33-year-old has spent time with the Pelicans, Kings, Pacers, 76ers, Warriors and Hawks throughout his career. In 765 regular-season appearances, Hield has averaged 14.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists over 27.5 minutes per contest. He's also a career 39.5 percent shooter from deep. Hield could have a tough time earning consistent minutes with the Bulls, so his fantasy ceiling isn't very high. While he may only be used situationally, there is a small chance he will see routine playing time throughout the 2026-27 campaign.
