Sees 10 minutes off bench Hield ended with two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and three rebounds in 10 minutes during Tuesday's 98-79 victory over the Clippers.

Drains three treys in bench role Hield finished with 11 points (4-10 FG, 3-9 3Pt), two rebounds, an assist and a steal across 23 minutes in Friday's 106-103 loss to the Clippers.

Impact The three-point specialist delivered from deep during the loss, but his streaky play is well documented. His volume beyond the arc makes the backup valuable in category leagues, but current projections place him outside the realm of fantasy viability unless an injury boosts his usage.

Passive performance Sunday Hield closed with six points (3-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 23 minutes during Sunday's preseason loss to the Lakers.

Impact Despite moving into the starting lineup, Hield failed to produce anything of note. After a hot start to his career in Golden State, Hield faded badly last season. The Warriors added depth during the offseason, a worrying sign for Hield, who could struggle to play a consistent role for the Warriors. His playing time is typically dependent on whether his perimeter shot is falling, something that can be sketchy, at best.
