Gordon Hayward

SF, Boston Celtics

Gordon Hayward (sprained right ankle) has cleared quarantine and is now working with Celtics trainers.

Earlier this week Brad Stevens said that Hayward wasn't close to game action despite returning to the bubble, though we are almost at his initial four-week timetable. That still will come after a potential Game 7 against the Raptors, so it's best not to expect Hayward until the Conference Finals, should Boston advance. Interestingly, Hayward's rehab includes walking through grass without shoes on to help strengthen his ankle and foot.
