SVI MYKHAILIUK NEWS

What will Svi Mykhailiuk bring to the Celtics? The roster is coming together as the Celtics signed veteran Svi Mykhailiuk to a one-year deal. How will he fit in?

SEPTEMBER 1, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Headed to Boston The Celtics signed Mykhailiuk to a one-year contract Thursday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

Impact Mykhailiuk will join his seventh team in the last six seasons in 2023-24. Last season, he averaged 6.9 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 14.6 minutes across 32 combined appearances for the Knicks and Hornets. While Mykhailiuk has shown to be a quality three-point shooter at points throughout his career, he is unlikely to receive significant minutes in Boston's guard rotation.

Continues to produce Mykhailiuk closed with 17 points (7-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 120-100 loss to the Raptors.

Impact Mykhailiuk has started the last six contests for Charlotte and has totaled 16 or more points in each of the last four, hitting at a 44.4 percent rate from deep over that span while averaging 19.3 points, 6.3 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 2.3 steals-plus-blocks. He will likely finish out the campaign in a starting role, but it's not a stretch that should be viewed as a foreshadowing of things to come in 2023-24.

Continues impressive play Mykhailiuk accumulated 16 points (7-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds, five assists and one block in 34 minutes during Friday's 121-91 loss to the Bulls.

Impact Mykhailiuk has started four of the past five games, playing 30-plus minutes in all of them as the Hornets deal with a myriad of injuries. He's been impressive, averaging 13.8 points on 46/41/80 shooting, 4.0 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals with just 1.0 turnovers. The wing's role could be reduced if Gordon Hayward (thumb), Kelly Oubre (shoulder) and Terry Rozier (foot) return, but the Hornets really have no reason to bring those veterans back.

APRIL 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Gets starting nod Mykhailiuk is in the starting five for Friday's game versus Dallas.

Impact Mykhailiuk will replace Kelly Oubre (shoulder) in the starting lineup Friday. Mykhailiuk will make his first start of the year against the Mavericks.

MARCH 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Plays season-high 30 minutes Mykhailiuk recorded 15 points (6-12 FG, 3-8 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 30 minutes during Thursday's 115-96 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact With Terry Rozier (foot), Kelly Oubre (shoulder) and Dennis Smith (illness) all leaving the contest early, plenty of reserves got extra minutes, but Mykhailiuk led the bench in minutes played and points, which were both also season highs for the Kansas product. Mykhailiuk has played at least 20 minutes just three times this season, but he's averaged 12.0 points on 46.9 percent shooting during those contests. It's unclear how serious their respective injuries are, but if Rozier and Oubre have to miss time, Mykhailiuk could move into the starting lineup and see this type of usage on a regular basis.

MARCH 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores three points in 16 minutes Mykhailiuk finished Friday's 117-106 loss to the Magic with three points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and two assists in 16 minutes.

Impact Mykhailiuk logged 16 minutes off the bench, appearing for just the third time in the past six games as a member of the Hornets. The fact he has played in only 16 games all season should tell you everything you need to know about his lack of fantasy appeal. Even in the deepest formats, managers would be better served to target a young player with at least a small amount of upside.

MARCH 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Off injury report Mykhailiuk isn't included on the Hornets' injury report for Monday's game against the Hawks.

Impact After being acquired Thursday, Mykhailiuk missed the Hornets' game Friday in Boston before joining the team ahead of Saturday's game against Denver. Because he didn't get the chance to practice with his new team, Mykhailiuk was ultimately inactive for the 119-105 loss to the Nuggets, but he should dress for Monday's game now that he's had more time to get acclimated. Though he'll have a clearer path to getting playing time off the bench in Charlotte than he did in New York earlier this season, Mykhailiuk may still find himself outside of the rotation if head coach Steve Clifford opts to use a short bench featuring Dennis Smith and Bryce McGowens as the primary reserve options on the wing.

FEBRUARY 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Saturday Updating a previous report, Mykhailiuk (trade) will not play Saturday against the Nuggets, Hornets radio network manager Rob Longo reports.

Impact Coach Steve Clifford said he hopes the new addition will be ready for Monday's game against the Hawks. Mykhailiuk appeared in just 13 games for the Knicks before the deadline, totaling 21 points, seven rebounds, one assist and one steal in 40 minutes. While he's not expected to have a fantasy-relevant role with Charlotte, he should have more opportunities, given that the Hornets' rotation is thinner and the playoffs are well out of the picture.

FEBRUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Slated to be available Saturday Mykhailiuk (recently traded) isn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's game versus the Nuggets, suggesting he will likely be in uniform for the Hornets.

Impact Even if Mykhailiuk is in uniform for Charlotte, he's unlikely to claim a significant role, previously appearing in just one game (for one minute) since Dec. 20 during his time with the Knicks. If he'll find any role with the Hornets remains unclear, but he's unlikely to crack fantasy relevance either way.

FEBRUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Friday Mykhailiuk is out for Friday's game versus the Celtics as he is not with the team.

Impact Mykhailiuk's designation could indicate that he is on the verge of being bought out by Charlotte. However, until that happens, his next chance to suit is Saturday's matchup with the Nuggets.

FEBRUARY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Moved to Charlotte The Hornets acquired Mykhailiuk and second-round picks in 2023 and 2027 on Thursday in a three-team trade that sent Jalen McDaniels, a 2024 second-round pick and a 2029 second-roun...

Impact The Hornets are primarily acquiring draft picks as part of the deal, but they could also get a look at Mykhailiuk in a small role off the bench. The fifth-year wing didn't see much playing time in the tight Knicks rotation prior to the trade, averaging 3.1 minutes in his 13 appearances this season.

FEBRUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Headed to Portland Mykhailiuk was traded to the Trail Blazers on Wednesday, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

Impact Mykhailiuk will be accompanied by Cam Reddish in Portland, while Josh Hart was sent to New York. Although Mykhailiuk saw sizeable workloads with Detroit and Oklahoma City in 2019 and 2020, he has been a non-factor in each of the last two seasons. His appearance in this trade comes primarily for salary cap reasons, which means he will likely be facing an uphill battle in earning a spot in the Trail Blazers' rotation. His first opportunity to take the floor with Portland will come Friday against the Thunder.

FEBRUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Contract guaranteed for 2022-23 The Knicks guaranteed Mykhailiuk's contract for 2022-23 on Saturday, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.

Impact Mykhailiuk is on his fifth team in as many seasons. His contract being guaranteed is somewhat surprising as he is averaging just 3.3 minutes across 12 appearances in 2022-23.

JANUARY 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Makes rare appearance Friday Mykhailiuk closed with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one steal over three minutes during Friday's 114-91 victory over the Bulls.

Impact Mykhailiuk saw playing time for just the 10th time this season, continuing what has been an uneventful campaign thus far. Given he is yet to exceed seven minutes in any appearance, Mykhailiuk can be safely ignored in all fantasy formats.

DECEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to parent club Mykhailiuk was recalled from Westchester following Monday's G League game against Capital City.

Impact Mykhailiuk's stint with Westchester lasted less than one day, as he's been directed to return to the Knicks' following Monday's G League action.

DECEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to G League Mykhailiuk will join the Westchester Knicks of the G League on Monday.

Impact Mykhailiuk has appeared in just seven NBA games this season, averaging 3.3 minutes per contest. It doesn't seem likely that he remains in the G League for too long, but he should be heavily involved for the duration of his time with the team.

DECEMBER 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable Friday Mykhailiuk is questionable for Friday's game against Indiana due to a sore lower back.

Impact Mykhailiuk missed Tuesday's preseason opener against the Pistons, and he's apparently dealing with a back issue that jeopardizes his availability for Friday's matchup. If he's unable to play, more minutes could be available for Jalen Harris, Trevor Keels and Miles McBride.

OCTOBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with undisclosed injury Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau said Monday that Mykhailiuk (undisclosed) is questionable for Tuesday's preseason game against the Pistons, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

Impact The extent of Mykhailiuk's injury is unclear, but if it's serious enough to force him to miss extended time during training camp, it'll be difficult for the Kansas product to make New York's initial roster. The 2018 second-round pick posted 4.6 points and 1.6 rebounds in 12.8 minutes per game over 56 appearances with the Raptors last season.

OCTOBER 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Signs with Knicks Mykhailiuk agreed to a partially guaranteed one-year deal with the Knicks on Sunday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Impact Mykhailiuk averaged 4.6 points and 1.6 rebounds in 12.8 minutes per game over 56 appearances with the Raptors last season but was waived by Toronto in late August. He'll attempt to bounce back on his short-term deal with the Knicks following his disappointing showing in Toronto.

Report: Svi Mykhailiuk Picks Up His Player Option for 2022-23 Svi Mykhailiuk will reportedly pick up his player option to remain with the Toronto Raptors for this summer

JUNE 21, 2022 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Exercises player option for 2022-23 Mykhailiuk exercised his $1.9 million player option for the 2022-23 campaign, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Impact Mykhailiuk made 56 appearances for the Raptors last season and averaged 4.6 points and 1.6 rebounds across 12.8 minutes per game. It'll be difficult for the 2018 second-round pick to garner a bigger role during the 2022-23 campaign if he continues to struggle from distance after shooting a career-low 30.3 percent during his first year in Toronto.

JUNE 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to NBA team Toronto recalled Mykhailiuk from the G League's Raptors 905 on Wednesday, Vivek Jacob of the Raptors' official site reports.

Impact Mykhailiuk will rejoin the NBA squad as the Raptors prepare for a matchup Thursday against one of his former teams (Detroit). The 24-year-old turned in a 40-point performance for the 905 in Wednesday's win over the College Park Skyhawks, but the offensive outburst likely won't do much for his chances of earning a regular role in the NBA rotation.
