Gordon Hayward leads Jazz to series clinching win over Clippers
Utah Jazz forward Gordon Hayward finished with 26 points (9-of-20 field goals, 6-of-6 free throws), 8 rebounds, 3 assists, and a pair of three-pointers in Sunday's Game 7 win over the Los Angeles Clippers.
Take out Game 4, where Hayward played only nine minutes due to food poisoning and the forward dominated offensively in the series. He averaged 27.2 points and 3.3 assists in the other six games but will be in for a tougher time against the defense of the Golden State Warriors and Kevin Durant in the next round.
Hayward had a team-high 28.7 percent usage rate in Game 7 while posting a 16.01 nERD rating, per numberFire Live.
