For the past two seasons, it's been clear that the Minnesota Timberwolves need a point guard. Minnesota's need for a PG was amplified this season, as Mike Conley declined more, and with the offseason loss of Nickeil Alexander-Walker. However, in the past week, Bones Hyland has emerged as a revelation in the Wolves' rotation.
Hyland returned to the Wolves' rotation last Monday against the Phoenix Suns. He dropped 14 points (on 5-for-8 shooting) in 15:47 minutes in his first game back in the rotation since early November. After that, Hyland earned two straight starts with Anthony Edwards out.
