Playing career

Phillips played junior hockey with the Newmarket Hurricanes of the Ontario Junior Hockey League (OJHL), before moving to the major junior level in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) with the Owen Sound Attack.

Following his second season with the Attack, Phillips was selected in the 2017 NHL entry draft in the fourth-round, 118th overall, by the Los Angeles Kings. He was later signed to a three-year, entry-level contract with the Kings on April 30, 2019.

Phillips spent the duration of his contract with the Kings, assigned to AHL affiliate, the Ontario Reign.

In the final season of the rookie contract with the Kings in 2021–22, Phillips was traded to the Winnipeg Jets organization in exchange for Nelson Nogier on March 21, 2022. He was immediately assigned to continue in the AHL with the Manitoba Moose, where he played out the remainder of the season.

As a pending restricted free agent with the Jets, Phillips was later un-signed by the club and opted to leave North America to sign a signing a one-year contract with Finnish club, Porin Ässät of the Liiga, on August 5, 2022.

After a lone season with Hungarian club, Fehérvár AV19 in the ICE Hockey League, Phillips continued his career abroad in securing a one-year contract with Russian club, Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod of the KHL, on June 11, 2024.
