Bones Hyland with the Denver Nuggets

The Denver Nuggets traded streaky second-year guard Bones Hyland to the LA Clippers for two second-round picks. It was a surprising deal, as Hyland is averaging 12.1 points, 2.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists off the bench this season.

Mike Singer of the Denver Post reported that Hyland was a source of frustration for star guard Jamal Murray. It might be one of the reasons why the Nuggets were eager to part ways with Hyland. However, it should also be noted that Hyland is a not a great defender and has questionable shot selections.
