Despite Having Ridiculed a Life-Threatening Event, 22YO NBA Star?s Prowess Gets Lauded by Celtics Legend Kevin Garnett

To get some heavy praise from the Boston Celtics legend, Kevin Garnett is a huge accomplishment. The 47-year-old has been making quite some noise on his Instagram, appreciating a few modern-day NBA stars and crediting them for their efforts. In another instance, a 22-year-old Los Angeles Clippers guard got the honor as he continues to go viral on the internet. However, what stands as a highlight is a small turn of events a few months back could have ended the life of this young NBA star.?

Departing from the Denver Nuggets in mid-season, the point guard’s first few months with the Clippers were thrilling. Rather life-threatening! Inches away from death, now he has got credit from the ‘Big Ticket‘!

Kevin Garnett endorses young Clippers guard

The Los Angeles Clippers made it to the first round of the Western Conference even in the absence of Paul George and Kawhi Leonard. Russell Westbrook played a huge role against the Phoenix Suns. Alongside Mr. Triple Double was none other than Bones Hyland, pushing his team on in the absence of its stars.?

The 22-year-old shined brightly, although he couldn’t help the Clippers get it done. Nonetheless, Hyland got the respect of several NBA buffs after his performance in the playoffs. The latest to join the list was Celtics legend Kevin Garnett.?

Hoop fans have all their eyes on NBA players participating in the PRO-AM league. One of them was Hyland. Representing the ‘Nike Pro City NYC’, the young point guard balled out, dropping 44 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 assists in his debut, which caught the attention of 15x All-Star.?

Garnett shared some beautiful jelly layups from Hyland on his story and added,?“BONES HERE FILAYYYYY EM…Crazy jelly roll.” Well, it’s also surprising to know that Hyland wouldn’t have got these credits if there was a small twist in a tale previously.?

Bones Hyland was close to experiencing death

Right after Hyland joined the Clippers, things almost went haywire. The 22-year-old shared a flight experience he had with the team. The Clippers traveled to Denver for a game back in February, when the flight was struck by lightning. However, Hyland somehow saw the funny side of it as he ridiculed the experience.

Hyland shared on his Twitter,?” Ngl(Not gonna lie) we thought it was over wit.”?A media house also shared,?“The plane dropped in altitude several times and shrieks could be heard from passengers in what some staffers called one of the worst moments they’ve experienced on a flight”.?
