Los Angeles Clippers guard Bones Hyland gave a candid reaction to a scary incident when the team was in the air heading to Colorado for a game against the Denver Nuggets late last month.
The team was on Delta Airlines charter flight when employees saw a flash of lightning on the right side of the plane, ESPN reported Wednesday. Reportedly, the engine stalled before it could be revived, striking fear in the hearts and minds of all on board.

The incident reportedly occurred on February 25, just one day before the team’s overtime loss to the Nuggets. It was their second straight loss and their second straight loss in overtime after they fell to the Sacramento Kings in double overtime the night before. The two losses were part of a five-game losing streak, which did not end until March 5.

“We had such bad luck that lightning struck us,” Clippers coach Tai Lo said.
However, it has been nearly two weeks since their last defeat, and they are currently riding a four-match winning streak. The Los Angeles Golden State Warriors topped Wednesday, 134-126. Kawhi Leonard dropped 30 points in the win. Ivica Zupak scored 19 points and grabbed 16 rebounds.
