data-mm-id=”_fxvcgx4qs”>Buddy Hield wants more money. The Sacramento Kings want to give him more money, but not that much. Hield isn't even asking for a max deal. He reportedly just wants an extra $5 million a year over what the Kings have so far offered. With one year left on his rookie deal, this is going to hang over the franchise until it has resolved itself one way or another. It seems insane that the Kings would hesitate to give Hield whatever he wants. He's a 20-point per game scorer and he does the most important thing in the modern NBA – shot 3's – at an elite level. Last season he hit 42.7% of his 651 three-point attempts. He was respectively 7th and 5th in the league in those categories. So he's worth the money. And then there's the fact that the Kings would never be able to sign a free agent of Hield's caliber. And he knows it. He's also letting the press know it, too. "Name one big free agent that came to Sacramento." – Buddy Hield ? (via @Sports1140KHTK) pic.twitter.com/oEVSOUgkQb— SLAM (@SLAMonline) October 17, 2019If you want to try and take that challenge, the answer is Vlade Divac in 1998. That's the list. The only big free agent signing in Sacramento Kings history took place 21 years ago. There has been no one before or since. If you look up lists of the top free agents in Kings history, you'll find Divac at the top of all the lists, alongside Scott Pollard and Bobby Jackson. Maybe don't look at those lists. You will either end up laughing or depressed. Which is how the Kings fans will be if they lose Buddy Hield and an opportunity to watch him grow alongside De'Aaron Fox. The Kings should cave to whatever demands Hield has and do it quickly. Otherwise, they're going to end up dealing with a trade demand. Best case scenario there is they get a draft pick that, if they're lucky, they turn into someone of Hield's caliber who ends up in the exact same situation looking for more money. They need to break the cycle now.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has matured since being made captain and is an important one to keep for Arsenal, says former Gunners defender Kolo Toure.
Since making his Arsenal debut in February 2018, no player has scored more Premier League goals than Aubameyang, whose return of 68 is matched only by Liverpool star Mohamed Salah.

With Naughty Dog putting Uncharted on the back burner in recent years, fans have had to get their adventure game fix elsewhere. So, it comes as no surprise that 2024’s big year-end game fulfills much of what Uncharted fans have been missing for close to a decade now. That isn’t to say that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is trying to be fill the void that Uncharted left, quite the contrary. MachineGames’ new magnum opus perhaps shares more in common with the studio’s older Chronicles of Riddick titles than Uncharted. Still, the sense of adventure between Uncharted and Indy has undeniable qualities that appeal to fans of each respective series. With that, here’s why Uncharted
Lionel Messi returned to training ahead of Paris Saint-Germain s final Ligue 1 fixture before the World Cup, as Christophe Galtier insisted he will not rest players against Auxerre on Sunday.
Messi missed PSG s 2-1 win at Lorient as a precautionary measure after suffering from inflammation in his Achilles tendon last week, though Galtier maintained the seven-time Ballon d Or winner was likely to return before the tournament in Qatar.
Just 11 days before Argentina begin their Group C campaign against Saudi Arabia, Messi has handed the Albiceleste a boost by joining France s Presnel Kimpembe in returning to PSG training.
While Galtier reiterated his desire to treat the concerns of his players seriously ahead of the World Cup, he is not planning to use Sunday s matc…
Fabio Aurelio will reportedly leave Liverpool and return to South America when his contract expires at the end of the season.
Brazilian left-back Aurelio has made only two appearances so far this season for Liverpool, with manager Kenny Dalglish preferring Jose Enrique and Glen Johnson at fullback.
Reports claim there have been no talks regarding a new deal and, with youngsters Jack Robinson and Jon Flanagan highly regarded by the club, Aurelio is believed to be considered surplus to requirements.
If Aurelio does move on later this year, it will be the second time he has departed Anfield on a free transfer.
The 32-year-old left Merseyside after the 2009/10 season when his previous deal expired, but returned only two months later when Roy Hodgson took cha…
