PLAYA VISTA, Calif. -- Bones Hyland said he did "jumping jacks" when he learned he was traded to the LA Clippers from Denver, where he feels he was "never" given the opportunity to showcase his playmaking point-guard skills.
The Clippers introduced Hyland, guard Eric Gordon and center Mason Plumlee on Monday. Those three were added at the trade deadline to help Kawhi Leonard and Paul George in their pursuit of a championship.
Hyland is a first-round pick that the Clippers were high on in the 2021 draft.
