BONES HYLAND NEWS

Strong showing off bench Hyland provided 17 points (6-12 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 19 minutes during Saturday's 127-115 loss to the Raptors.

Impact The rookie guard tied his career high in assists while scoring in double digits for the fifth time in his last six games. Hyland is averaging 12.0 points, 4.2 assists, 2.7 boards, 2.5 threes and 1.2 steals in only 18.3 minutes over that stretch, and rather than hitting the proverbial wall, the 21-year-old seems to be finding another gear late in the season.

Set to play Saturday Hyland (knee) is active for Saturday's contest against Toronto.

Impact Hyland was listed as probable coming into the matchup, and he will indeed be available for the clash against the Raptors. The rookie has been dealing with a knee issue but has been able to play in five of Denver's past six games.

Probable vs. Raptors Hyland (knee) is probable for Saturday's matchup against the Raptors.

Impact The rookie made his return from a one-game absence to play 22 minutes against the Warriors, so he should be fine for Saturday. In his past eight appearances, he's averaged 9.5 points, 3.6 assists and 2.5 rebounds in 17.8 minutes.

Available Thursday Hyland (knee) is available for Thursday's game against Golden State.

Impact Hyland missed Wednesday's win over the Kings due to right knee soreness, but he'll return to the court for Thursday's tilt with the Warriors. With Will Barton (ankle) still out, Hyland could see some additional playing time in his absence. The 21-year-old is averaging 8.8 points, 2.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 17.6 minutes per game this season.

Listed as questionable Hyland (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Warriors, Harrison Wind of DNVR Sports reports.

Impact The rookie was withheld from Wednesday night's win over the Kings, and the Nuggets will give him a few more hours before making a final call on his status for the second leg of the back-to-back.

Jokic dominates Kings as Nuggets win after blowing big lead

Nikola Jokic had 38 points, 18 rebounds and seven assists, and the Denver Nuggets held on after blowing an 18-point lead and beat the Sacramento Kings 106-100

Out Wednesday Hyland (knee) won't play Wednesday against the Kings, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Impact Hyland's status was downgraded from probable to questionable ahead of Wednesday's tilt with the Kings, so it appears the right knee soreness he's dealing with stuck around longer than anticipated. He'll miss Wednesday's game as a result. With Will Barton (ankle) also sidelined, Austin Rivers, Bryn Forbes and Facundo Campazzo could see increased run in the Nuggets' backcourt.

Questionable at Sacramento Hyland is probable for Wednesday's game against the Kings due to right knee soreness, freelance writer T.J McBride reports.

Impact Will Barton (ankle) is also questionable, so the Nuggets could have a shorthanded backcourt. More minutes may be in store for Bryn Forbes, Austin Rivers and Facundo Campazzo.

Posts 19 efficient points Wednesday Hyland racked up 19 points (6-8 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal over 22 minutes during Wednesday's 119-107 loss to the Thunder.

Impact Hyland played less than a minute due to a sore left ankle in Denver's win over Portland on Sunday. The rookie guard was able to log 22 minutes Wednesday, however, and he finished second on the team in scoring with 19 points. That output came quite efficiently, as Hyland made five of six shots from three-point range and went 6-for-8 from the field overall. He's shown flashes of offensive excellence throughout the campaign, but Hyland's role is still too inconsistent to warrant consideration in standard 12-team fantasy leagues.

Gilgeous-Alexander, Roby lead Thunder by Nuggets, 119-107

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 29 points, Isaiah Roby added a career-high 26 and the injury-depleted Oklahoma City Thunder beat the heavily favored Denver Nuggets 119-107

Not listed on injury report Hyland (ankle) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Hyland played just one minute before exiting Sunday's win over the Trail Blazers due to left ankle soreness. It's a positive sign to see the rookie omitted from the injury report, and he should return to his usual workload Wednesday. He averaged 9.7 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 29.6 minutes across 11 appearances (three starts) during February.

MARCH 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't return Sunday Hyland (ankle) didn't return to Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Impact Hyland didn't record any counting stats prior to exiting Sunday's game with left ankle soreness after playing less than a minute. It's not yet clear whether he'll be able to suit up Wednesday against Oklahoma City.

FEBRUARY 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable to return Hyland is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers due to left ankle soreness, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Hyland came off the bench Sunday and missed a field goal, but he was removed from the game after playing less than a minute. If he's unable to return, Facundo Campazzo and Austin Rivers should see increased run.

Productive in 17 minutes Hyland ended Saturday's 115-110 victory over the Kings with 11 points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 17 minutes.

Impact Hyland made the most of his limited time on the court, pacing Denver reserves in scoring and chipping in a trio of rebounds and dimes. The rookie had combined to shoot 4-for-20 over his previous two games, so this was a step in the right direction. However, Hyland is shooting just 36.7 percent from the field overall this season, thus it would be unwise to expect him to suddenly post consistently efficient shooting lines.

Aggressive offensively in loss Hyland tallied 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-7 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block during Friday's 50-48 loss to Team Barry during the Rising Stars competition at All-S...

Impact Hyland attempted a team-high 10 shots en route to 10 points, finishing second on the team behind Jaden McDaniels (12). The rookie out of VCU scored 10 of Team Payton's first 33 points but was held scoreless the rest of the way as Team Barry pulled out a clutch two-point win during the first leg of the new format.

Bones Hyland on Rising Stars appearance: "This is a big moment for me." CLEVELAND – Nuggets rookie Bones Hyland was supposed to be back at VCU this weekend.

Numbers, minutes trend down Hyland posted five points (2-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt), five assists and two rebounds across 17 minutes Wednesday in the Nuggets' 117-116 win over the Warriors.

Impact As expected, Hyland's three-game run as a starter came to an end with Monte Morris (concussion) gaining clearance to return to the lineup Wednesday. With the demotion to the second unit came a reduction in playing time, and though Hyland was solid enough during his time on the court from a counting-stats standpoint, the rookie probably needs a consistent 25-plus-minute role to become a worthy back-end roster option in most 12-team leagues.

FEBRUARY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Moves back to bench Hyland will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Warriors, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Impact With Monte Morris rejoining the lineup following a three-game absence due to a concussion, Hyland will shift back to a bench role. The rookie guard is averaging 8.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 18.1 minutes per game this season.

FEBRUARY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Offensive skills on display Monday Hyland supplied 14 points (4-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Monday's 121-111 win over the Magic.

Impact Hyland had another productive night, continuing the best stretch of games in his young career. He has played at least 25 minutes in three of the past four games, averaging 14.3 points per game over the same span. At this point, he should be viewed as a possible streaming option for anyone in need of some points and triples, but fantasy managers should keep an eye on his role moving forward given what we have seen thus far this season.

FEBRUARY 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in double figures Hyland provided 11 points (4-11 FG, 3-9 3Pt), four rebounds and four assists over 24 minutes during Saturday's 110-109 win over the Raptors.

Impact Hyland drew a second consecutive start with Monte Morris (concussion) sidelined. Over those two games, the rookie has totaled 21 points, six rebounds and four assists across 42 minutes. While Hyland has drawn back-to-back starts, Facundo Campazzo has also seen an increased role off the bench and has nearly matched Hyland's production as the starter. Both Hyland and Campazzo figure to see increased roles for the duration of Morris' absence, but it's unclear who has the upper hand in terms of fantasy production.

Nuggets beat Raptors 110-109, end Toronto's streak at eight

Rookie guard Bones Hyland made a tiebreaking 3-pointer with 2:16 to play and the Denver Nuggets beat Toronto 110-109 Saturday, ending the Raptors’ winning streak at eight

Scores 10 points in start Hyland posted 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and two rebounds over 18 minutes during Friday's 108-102 loss to Boston.

Impact While Hyland drew the start in place of Monte Morris (concussion), Facundo Campazzo played more minutes and was more productive than Hyland off the bench. Denver has three remaining games before the All-Star break, but it's unclear if Morris will be able to suit up for any of those contests. As long as he remains sidelined, Hyland and Campazzo are both candidates for increased roles.

FEBRUARY 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Starting for injured Morris Hyland will start Friday's game against Boston, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Hyland will make his first start of the season since Monte Morris (concussion) will be unavailable against the Celtics. The 21-year-old has averaged 11.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 19.8 minutes per game across his last four appearances.

FEBRUARY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Shines off bench Tuesday Hyland closed Tuesday's 132-115 victory over the Knicks with 22 points (6-12 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds and three assists over 25 minutes.

Impact Hyland was coming off four straight games in which he couldn't surpass the 10-point mark, but he bounced back admirably here and delivered an excellent performance. He can score at will and has quite a lot of offensive potential, but the nature of his bench role makes him a very inconsistent player, thus limiting his fantasy appeal.
