News: 7 days agoHyland contributed 27 points (8-15 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Saturday's 133-96 win over the Lakers.
Spin: Hyland saw a career-high 33 minutes in the contest, in large part due to the blowout nature of the affair. The rookie took advantage with a career-high point total and his first double-double in the NBA. Hyland has shown flashes of strong play this season, though he has yet to establish the consistency deserving of a roster spot in most fantasy leagues. Still, Saturday's showing is a reminder of why the Nuggets remain high on him and of his potential to be a fantasy asset eventually. For the moment, his strongest weapon is his three-point shot -- over his past two games, Hyland has gone 11-for-18 from beyond the arc.
