Gordon Hayward Has Already Returned To The Basketball Court

Last month, Gordon Hayward suffered a devastating leg injury during a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers that sidelined him for the season. Hayward immediately underwent surgery, and while there is no timetable for his return, it appears he has already made a fair amount of progress over the past few weeks.

On Sunday, Celtics GM Danny Ainge shared a photo of Hayward back in the gym sporting a boot and taking shots while sitting in a chair at the free throw line.

The forward obviously has a long way to go before he’ll be able to return to the court for real, but it’s great to see how far he’s come in such a short amount of time. That’s what dedication looks like.
