Gordon Hayward (leg) will start on Tuesday for Boston
Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward (leg) will start on Tuesday against the Philadelphia 76ers in the season opener.
What It Means:
Hayward is expected to have his minutes limited (25 to 30) on Tuesday after sitting out a whole year with the gruesome leg injury he suffered on opening night last season. Jayson Tatum will see time at both the small and power forward positions with Marcus Morris seeing additional minutes at the four on Tuesday.
Our models project Hayward for 10.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in 25.6 minutes for 21.1 FanDuel points on Tuesday night.
