Hield ended with 27 points (10-18 FG, 7-13 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and three steals in 35 minutes during Sunday's 114-106 win over the Timberwolves.
With Andrew Wiggins (ankle) in street clothes, Hield made his third start of the season and posted his best scoring effort in over a month. He snapped out of a shooting slump that had seen him score in single digits in three straight games while going just 3-for-14 (21.4 percent) from beyond the arc. The seven made threes Sunday also tied his season high, a mark he set Oct. 29. Wiggins isn't expected to miss much time, but Hield's inconsistency would make him a risky fantasy option even if he did remain in the starting five for another game or two.
