The Golden State Warriors are in a tough spot, and fans aren’t holding back their frustrations—especially when it comes to Steve Kerr and his decisions. The team’s inconsistency has been a major talking point all season, but now, all eyes are on Buddy Hield and whether Kerr is handling his struggles the right way.
The Warriors faithful expected Hield to be a key contributor, especially after the recent roster shake-ups. But instead of being the offensive weapon they needed, he’s been stuck in a concerning slump—and it’s starting to feel like a pattern rather than just a bad stretch.
Buddy Hield’s Struggles—And Why Fans Blame Steve Kerr
Let’s start with the numbers, because they tell a story that Warriors fans won’t like. In the February 10 game against the Bucks, Hield played 30 minutes and put up 16 points on 7-of-15 shooting, but his 2-of-8 mark from three-point range stood out like a sore thumb. For a player known as a sharpshooter, that’s not good enough—and unfortunately, this isn’t an isolated incident.
Over the last 10 games, Hield has averaged just 9.9 points and 3.8 rebounds per game, shooting a rough 38.9% from the field. That’s far below his usual production, and fans are starting to ask the obvious question: Why is Steve Kerr giving him so many minutes when he’s clearly struggling?
The frustration hit a boiling point during the Warriors’ recent matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. Hield played 29 minutes—and what did he do with them? Just 3 points. Yes, you read that right. A three-point specialist scored only three points. That kind of performance is unacceptable, and fans are starting to lose patience—not just with Hield, but with Kerr’s insistence on keeping him in key rotations.
The team is already fighting to stay competitive, and with trade rumors swirling, Warriors fans are questioning whether Kerr is making the right calls. Should he be playing someone else in those minutes? Is he too loyal to certain veterans? Is it time for a serious change in the rotation?
One thing’s for sure—the Warriors community has had enough. And they’re making their voices heard.
