Gordon Hayward to play 25-30 minutes for Celtics early
Boston Celtics guard/forward Gordon Hayward will be limited to 25-30 minutes for the first couple weeks, head coach Brad Stevens said.
What It Means:
Stevens previously said Hayward would be "limited a bit from a minutes perspective" to start the season, so this was expected. The Celtics open versus the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday.
numberFire's models currently project Hayward to average 18.6 points, 5.1 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.0 steals, and 1.9 3-pointers per game this season.
