Hyland’s absence should mean more run for Ayo Dosunmu, especially if Anthony Edwards is ruled out again.

Hyland played 23 minutes in Wednesday’s loss to the Magic. He’s likely to take on a similar role on Friday if available. How high a ceiling he’ll have in active fantasy leagues depends on the statuses of Anthony Edwards and Ayo Dosunmu, who are also questionable.

Hyland continues to offer solid offensive production off the bench as the Timberwolves continue to play without Anthony Edwards. Over his last three games, the 6-foot-2 guard has totaled 58 points. In addition to his 19 points, Hyland dished out a team-high seven assists in Tuesday’s victory. With the Timberwolves having three more games in Week 24, Bones is worth adding in active fantasy leagues.

In the four games he played after scoring 23 points in a March 22 win over the Celtics, Hyland totaled 32 points on 13-of-43 shooting from the field. Even though it occurred in a loss, Bones needed a night like Friday to get untracked. With Anthony Edwards still banged up and Jaden McDaniels (knee) week-to-week, Hyland’s offensive contributions have added importance as the Timberwolves fight for seeding in the Western Conference standings.

Since the Timberwolves had to shut down Anthony Edwards (knee) for a couple of weeks, Hyland and Ayo Dosunmu have upped their offensive production. Bones scored a team-high 23 points in Boston, and he’s scored at least 17 in each of the last four games. His final line on Sunday only lacked a blocked shot, but fantasy managers will be more focused on Hyland’s efficiency and offensive production. The lone negative heading into Week 22 is the schedule, as the Timberwolves play two games.

Hyland may not have moved into the starting lineup following Anthony Edwards’ knee injury, but there have been more opportunities for him to shine off the bench. He’s scored 17 points or more in all three games that Edwards has missed, making Bones a worthwhile streamer for managers competing in points leagues.

Hyland didn’t move into the starting lineup with Anthony Edwards (knee) set to miss at least one week, but he did see extra minutes off the bench and took full advantage of the opportunity. This was his fourth 20-point game of the season, and he fell just short of his season-high 23-point performance in January. Hyland played 29 minutes in this game and should continue to play a larger role with Edwards sidelined, giving him some upside as a streamer, though this type of production may not come consistently.

While the Timberwolves await the expected return of Mike Conley and Ayo Dosunmu’s debut, Hyland has held down the fort as the first guard off the bench. For the first time this season, he’s recorded back-to-back 20-point games, doing so efficiently. In games against the Raptors and Pelicans, Hyland totaled 40 points on 14-of-23 shooting from the field. While he isn’t a must-stream player, Bones has a higher short-term ceiling because of Minnesota’s lack of perimeter depth.

Hyland was instrumental in Wednesday’s win over the Raptors. The 25-year-old point guard was instant offense with 20 points on 12 field goal attempts and four three-pointers off the bench. Only Anthony Edwards had more points for the Timberwolves in the 128-126 victory. Hyland’s scoring isn’t consistent enough for him to have much fantasy value when Edwards is available.

With Anthony Edwards (foot) sidelined, Hyland played 21 minutes off the bench, played aggressively and dropped a season-high 23 points. The 25-year-old point guard hasn’t been a consistent enough scorer to even say he’s a worthwhile streamer while Edwards is out, though Tuesday’s performance was certainly encouraging.

Hyland had a solid stretch in mid-December, but his role has been limited recently. However, he went over 20 minutes in this game, which allowed him to set a new season high for assists. He has redeemed his value this season, but that hasn’t led to him being a consistent contributor in redraft leagues. Still, at only 25 years old, he has value in dynasty formats.

Hyland was a late addition to the Timberwolves’ injury report, but he’s officially available to play. While he has earned rotation minutes recently, leapfrogging Rob Dillingham, Hyland boasts a limited fantasy ceiling, especially with Jaden McDaniels active.

Hyland is a late addition to the Timberwolves’ injury report. How impactful his absence would be if he can’t play depends on Jaden McDaniels (oblique), who is also questionable. If McDaniels plays, the minutes available to Hyland would decrease.

Hyland has been upgraded from questionable to available and will be back in the starting lineup. He’ll once again fill the void left by Anthony Edwards, who’s out with a foot injury. Hyland only played four minutes in Friday’s win over the Warriors, as he exited with a right knee contusion.

Hyland started Friday’s win over the Warriors for the injured Anthony Edwards, but a right knee contusion limited him to four minutes. Bones’ fantasy prospects hinge on Edwards’ availability, as he’ll fall in the rotation if Ant-Man can play.

Hyland, who started Friday’s game for the injured Anthony Edwards, suffered a right knee contusion during the first half. Terrence Shannon Jr. started the third quarter in his place. In addition to Shannon, Rob Dillingham will have additional minutes available.

There’s just one change to the Timberwolves’ starting lineup, but it’s significant. Anthony Edwards is out with a foot injury, so Hyland will make his first start as a Timberwolf. With Mike Conley also out, this may be a spot where Rob Dillingham picks up rotation minutes off the bench, but Hyland should be the focus of deep-league managers looking for a streamer.

Not only were the 14 points a season-high for Hyland, but this was his second game in double figures. While he did provide needed perimeter shooting off the bench, one game does not make the former first-round pick a viable fantasy option. Leave Bones on the waiver wire.

Hyland signed with Minnesota just a few weeks prior to this game after closing last season on a two-way contract with them. He’s still looking to get a guaranteed deal, and this performance will certainly help his cause. However, even if he remains with them this season, he won’t play a large enough role to impact fantasy basketball.

Hyland split last season between the Clippers and Timberwolves, with the latter signing him to a two-way contract in late February after Atlanta waived him. The former first-round pick appeared in 24 games, averaging 6.2 points, 1.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 10.0 minutes. Hyland will compete for rotation minutes off the bench, which limits his fantasy potential.

The 26th overall pick in the 2021 draft, Hyland has struggled to establish himself as a pro. After beginning this season with the Clippers, he was waived by the Hawks after being acquired at the February trade deadline. While Hyland is unlikely to impact fantasy basketball in Minnesota, he reunites with the executive (Tim Connelly) who drafted him in Denver.
