The Golden State Warriors are enjoying a fantastic run this season. After a mediocre season to start with, they have drastically improved. To the point where they find themselves in the Conference semifinals. Facing off against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Warriors did suffer a loss in their last game. However, with the series tied 1-1, the Warriors still have some lighthearted moments to share. One such incident took place with Buddy Hield.
Together with Jimmy Butler, Hield has been a character to watch. Everytime the duo appears for a presser, their hilarious dynamics keeps the media on their toes. And while Hield termed Jimmy Butler as ‘still Robin’, Hield also mentioned that he ‘was Batman.’ With the fans cracking up on the funny narrative, they termed Hield as ‘Batman’ recently. But as it turns out, Hield is not okay with the moniker.
“F*ck batman, f*ck batman, i’m a power ranger,” said Hield.

Surely, irrespective of which moniker Hield likes more, he has been quite phenomenal in his role. After Stephen Curry left the court in Game 1, Hield put up a show to ensure that Game 1 went in favor of the Warriors. Meanwhile, the verbal tussle between Hield and Jimmy Butler does not seem to end.
