Out Sunday Hyland has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rockets due to an undisclosed injury, Justin Russo of the 'Clip & Roll' podcast reports.
Impact Hyland has totaled 57 points, 15 assists and six steals over his last two appearances, including one start, and he was in line for another elevated role Sunday, as most of the Clippers' regulars are resting. However, the youngster has been ruled out an hour before tipoff after not being listed on any of the previous injury reports. It's unclear if he'll have a regular rotational role during the postseason.
APRIL 14 • ROTOWIRE
Top scorer off bench in extra time Hyland chipped in 20 points (7-17 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, six assists, one block and three steals over 30 minutes during Friday's 110-109 loss to the Jazz.
Impact Hyland led all Clippers in scoring and threes made while handing out a team-best assist total and a team-high-tying trio of steals while receiving extended minutes off the bench with Los Angeles resting some of its starters. Hyland has surpassed the 20-point mark in two games this season, finishing with at least five boards and five assists in two contests. We could see Hyland earn extra minutes again in the regular-season finale Sunday.
APRIL 13 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to bench Hyland will come off the bench Friday against the Jazz, Justin Russo of the 'Clip & Roll' podcast reports.
Impact Hyland drew the start at point guard Wednesday while Russell Westbrook and James Harden recovered from injury, but he'll shift back to the bench for Friday's action. Hyland recorded seven points, nine rebounds and two assists over 17 minutes in his last appearance as a reserve Tuesday in Phoenix.
APRIL 13 • ROTOWIRE
Season best outing in start Hyland closed with 37 points (15-29 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, nine assists and three steals across 43 minutes during Wednesday's 124-108 loss to the Suns.
Impact Hyland got the starting nod with Russell Westbrook (hand) and James Harden (foot) out, putting forth his best outing of the year while leading all players in Wednesday's contest in threes made and leading the Clippers in scoring, assists and steals in an all-around showing. Hyland set season high marks in scoring and threes made, surpassing the 20-point mark for the first time of the year. He posted his second-best assist total of the 2023-24 campaign, finishing behind only his season high of 11 assists recorded March 14 against Chicago.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Back with first unit Hyland will start Wednesday's game against the Suns, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.
Impact Hyland draws the starting nod at point guard with the Clippers down Russell Westbrook (hand) and James Harden (foot). In four starts this season, Hyland is averaging 10.8 points, 5.8 assists and 2.0 rebounds.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Retreats to bench Hyland will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Hawks, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Impact Hyland got two spot starts with James Harden (shoulder) out of the lineup, but he will return to his usual bench spot Sunday. With Norman Powell (lower leg) out of the lineup, Hyland could still be in for ample playing time.
MARCH 18 • ROTOWIRE
Struggles in spot start Hyland accumulated five points (2-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 24 minutes during Friday's 112-104 loss to the Pelicans.
Impact Hyland got the starting nod once again with James Harden ruled out due to a shoulder injury. Coming off a strong performance Thursday, Hyland failed to repeat his heroics, tallying just five points in 24 minutes. Harden's injury doesn't sound as though it is going to cause him to miss significant time, meaning Hyland's stretch of relevance could end just as quickly as it began.
MARCH 16 • ROTOWIRE
Takes advantage of spot start Hyland notched 17 points (6-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, 11 assists and four steals over 32 minutes during Thursday's 126-111 victory over the Bulls.
Impact Hyland was inserted into the starting lineup with James Harden (shoulder) sidelined. Hyland made the most of his opportunity as he recorded his first double-double of the season and the third of his career. His 11 assists Thursday tied a career high set in December of 2022, and his 17 points were his most since Nov. 10 against the Mavericks. Law Murray of The Athletic reported before Thursday's game that Harden is uncertain he'll play Friday against the Pelicans, and if that's the case, Hyland figures to reprise his starting role.
MARCH 15 • ROTOWIRE
Starting for injured Harden Hyland will get the start Thursday against the Bulls in place of the injured James Harden (shoulder), Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Impact Hyland has been a consistent part of the rotation over the past seven games, and it appears coach Tyronn Lue has seen enough to give him a chance at starting in place of Harden. Hyland has gotten the nod in two prior games this season, totaling 21 points, eight assists, two steals and one rebound in 66 minutes. Per 36 minutes, he's averaging 16.3 points, 5.4 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.4 steals. The Clippers will still have Kawhi Leonard (back) after an injury scare, however, so it won't be just up to Hyland and Paul George to generate first-unit offense.
MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE
Plays well off bench Hyland ended with eight points (3-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists in 18 minutes during Tuesday's 118-100 loss to Minnesota.
Impact Kawhi Leonard left this game early after 12 minutes with a back issue and didn't return, and Hyland made the most of his limited minutes. He had no rhythm at the beginning of March, but he's played well in three straight games with averages of 10.0 points, 3.0 assists, 2.0 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 2.3 three-pointers.
MARCH 13 • ROTOWIRE
Enters rotation for Clippers Hyland notched zero points (0-3 FG) and two assists in 14 minutes during Sunday's 89-88 victory over Minnesota.
Impact After not playing at all in February, Hyland has averaged 15.0 minutes in his last two appearances. He's getting some opportunity with Russell Westbrook (wrist) out indefinitely, but there's some obvious rust to shake off with a combined two points in those games on 1-of-10 shooting.
MARCH 4 • ROTOWIRE
Available to play Hyland will be available for Thursday's game against the Thunder, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.
Impact While Hyland will be available for Thursday's game, that doesn't mean he'll play. The third-year guard has only appeared in 19 games for the Clippers this season, posting meager averages of 6.2 points, 1.7 assists and not much else on 36.7 percent shooting from the floor.
FEBRUARY 21 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play Wednesday Hyland is listed as out for Wednesday's game versus the Warriors while not being with the team.
Impact Hyland's absence won't affect the Clippers' rotation, as he hasn't played since Jan. 31 despite being available. Hyland's next chance to suit up will come after the All-Star Break on Feb. 22 against the Thunder.
FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE
Rare appearance in win Hyland totaled two points (1-8 FG, 0-6 3Pt), one rebound, four assists and two steals across 10 minutes during Saturday's 115-96 win over the Celtics.
Impact Hyland played at least 10 minutes for just the second time in over two months, taking advantage of the blowout. After an encouraging start to the season, Hyland has basically fallen out of the rotation, spending far more time on the bench than he does on the court. From a fantasy perspective, there is nothing to see or do here.
JANUARY 28 • ROTOWIRE
Good to go Wednesday Hyland (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against Dallas, Eddie Sefko of the Mavericks' official site reports.
Impact Hyland has been upgraded from questionable to available Wednesday despite dealing with a right knee injury. However, the 23-year-old guard has been an inconsistent part of the Clippers' rotation.
DECEMBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Iffy against Dallas Hyland (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Mavericks, Justin Russo of the 'Clip & Roll' podcast reports.
Impact Hyland is currently dealing with right knee chondromalacia and could miss his third straight game due to his knee issues. However, his potential absence shouldn't affect the Clippers' rotation.
DECEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable to play Monday Hyland (knee) is considered questionable to play Monday against Indiana, Justin Russo of the 'Clip & Roll' podcast reports.
Impact Hyland is amid a two-game absence due to right knee soreness, following a nine-minute cameo on Dec. 12 after a three-game absence due to shoulder issues. He's also logged a handful of DNP-CDs this season, so it's difficult to determine exactly how banged up Hyland is. Amir Coffey has seen a nightly role across the Clippers' past three games, which Hyland could usurp if he's cleared to play Monday.
