Rod Boone: Gordon Hayward said he has a bone chip in his foot and that caused it to not heal as fast as it should. Said his ankle has felt fine. It’s the chip that’s bothered him. He said he’s been told the best method for recovery was to get his foot in a cast so he can stay off of it. pic.twitter.com/82sFbmSNeN

Jaylen Brown: “There’s a great inner strength to this team. … There’s no giving up. That’s not even in the vocabulary. There’s no backing down.”
Said it’s a little bit like how the Celtics were in 2018 when they went to the Conference Finals despite losing Hayward/Kyrie. – 2:08 PM

Next morning thoughts:
1) Miles could have cost himself lots of money w/ that lackluster performance (team low -30 in 30 min) + lack of maturity.
2) There will only be a few homes for Hayward’s albatross contract, but I do expect team to shop Rozier (possibly along w/ pick(s)) – 10:02 AM

The Hornets missing Gordon Hayward was 100% predictable. It was a great signal to LaMelo that you wanted to sign a player to help win now, but this is the other side of that signing: Hayward has not been consistently available, and it crippled this team. – 9:35 PM

Borrego on Trae Young “We can’t let him stay in the corner and just hide defensively, we have to make him work”
Interesting to see how Charlotte hunt young with no Hayward, he was often the guy who exploited the matchup. – 5:54 PM

Rod Boone: Gordon Hayward (left foot soreness) has been downgraded to OUT for tonight’s game against the Heat. James Borrego said it’s precautionary more than anything. They don’t want to push it. “He’s day-to-day,” Borrego said. pic.twitter.com/fvpSTNsCOh -via Twitter @rodboone / April 5, 2022
