The former VCU guard far exceeded expectations, but was Bones Hyland the biggest steal of the 2021 NBA Draft for the Denver Nuggets?

Cade Cunningham was drafted first overall and is clearly Detroit’s best player. Scottie Barnes just won the Rookie of the Year and is already the future of the Toronto Raptors. While Evan Mobley might turn out to be the next Anthony Davis of the NBA.

However, could it be that the Denver Nuggets walked away with the biggest steal in the entire 2021 NBA Draft in Nah’Shon “Bones” Hyland?

Now that we’re almost a full year removed from the draft, it’s time to give a final season review of Bones Hyland and determine whether he was the steal of the draft.
