Kings' Buddy Hield to compete in 3-point contest at NBA All-Star Weekend

Even in what has been a disappointing season in Sacramento, the Kings will have some representation during the NBA's All-Star Weekend in Chicago.

Shooting guard Buddy Hield will appear in the 3-Point Contest during NBA All-Star Saturday Night on Feb. 15, the team announced on Tuesday.

Yahoo Sports' Chris B. Haynes first reported the news, citing sources last week.

Hield finished his last two NBA seasons at well above 42 percent from beyond the arc, and is shooting 37 percent through 48 games in 2019-20. He ranks second behind James Harden in made 3s this season, with 178.

The sharpshooter competed in the event last season as well, finishing in third place in his 3-Point Contest debut.

The contest will add a new look with the addition of two shots in the "MTN DEW Zone," NBA announced in a press release.

The two locations will be positioned between the racks atop of the 3-point arc and the adjacent "wing" rack. The two ball pedestals in the zone are located six feet behind the 3-point line and holds the "3-Ball." Shots that are made with these balls are worth three points.

In addition to the MTN DEW Zone, the number of balls per round has increased from 25 to 27 and the amount of time has increased to 70 seconds with the maximum possible score in a round expanding from 34 points to 40 points.
