Hield had six points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, one block and two steals in 11 minutes during Monday's 120-107 win over the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Hield continues to play a muted role, having now logged no more than 15 minutes in six straight games, two of which he failed to see the court. While expectations were relatively low coming into the season, Hield has been even worse, averaging just 7.5 points and 1.4 three-pointers in 17.6 minutes per game through 31 appearances. Sitting well outside the top 250 in standard leagues, it appears as though Hield's days of being a fantasy asset are now well behind him.

Hield supplied three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist over 14 minutes during Sunday's 141-127 overtime loss to the Raptors.
EDGE Analysis
Hield's role continues to trend in the wrong direction as the Warriors look to give other rotation players a fair shot. Over his last five appearances, Hield has seen 12.6 minutes per contest with 5.0 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.4 three-pointers per game.

Hield (coach's decision) went unused off the bench in Saturday's 119-116 win over the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
Though Golden State ran with the same starting five for the third game in a row, head coach Steve Kerr continued to tinker with the back end of his rotation. For the first time all season, Hield found himself as the odd man out, even on a night Golden State used 12 players. Kerr elected to reopen a spot in the rotation Will Richard, who hadn't appeared in any of the past three games but responded with a 20-point, five-rebound effort off the bench. Richard's performance could earn him more opportunities on the second unit at the expense of Hield, who had seen his playing time drop in each ensuing game since he made a 26-minute start Dec. 6 in Cleveland.

Hield will come off the bench Sunday against Portland, Danny Emerman of SFStandard.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Golden State's lineups continue to be fluid, and this time it's Hield and Pat Spencer who will move to the second unit. Hield is coming off a pair of duds with an average of 7.5 points over his last two outings.

Hield will start Saturday's game against the Cavaliers, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Warriors will shake things up with several lineup changes Saturday. With so much offensive firepower on the sidelines with injuries, Hield will have a big opportunity to get up plenty of shots Saturday.

Hield closed Thursday's 99-98 loss to the 76ers with 14 points (6-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 26 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Hield received plenty of looks from beyond the arc Thursday night, but he was unable to capitalize. He's struggled to find his groove over his last three matchups, sinking only six of 23 attempts (26.1 percent). Even so, Hield could continue to see key minutes off the bench if Jimmy Butler (knee) misses more time.

Hield recorded 13 points (4-15 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound, four assists and two steals over 28 minutes during Tuesday's 124-112 loss to the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Hield had quite a green light to shoot Tuesday, which makes sense given the early departure of Jimmy Butler (knee) and absence of Stephen Curry (quadriceps). Even so, the veteran sharpshooter remains a hit-or-miss fantasy option, having averaged 8.7 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 20.7 minutes per game over his last seven outings.

Hield supplied 20 points (8-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 23 minutes off the bench during Monday's 134-117 win over the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
The 20 points were a season high for Hield, who continues to struggle with his consistency. He's drained at least three three-pointers in three of the last five games, but he managed a total of just two points in the other two contests combined. The veteran guard is averaging a career-worst 7.6 points and 1.4 threes in 17.7 minutes a game as part of the Warriors' second unit, but his recent ceiling performances suggest Hield might be finding a groove.

Hield ended Friday's 127-123 loss to the Trail Blazers with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one steal in 16 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Hield failed to score for the second time this season, another in a long line of underwhelming performances. He has tallied double digits only five times thus far, and is averaging 6.9 points through his first 18 games. He holds little to no value in fantasy, outside of limited streaming appeal.

Hield (illness) is available for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
Hield will power through his illness, but with Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green all back in action Friday night, Hield's upside will be limited. Hield is averaging 7.3 points and 1.3 triples per game on the year.
