Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Gordon Hayward (hip) is probable to play Thursday against the Toronto Raptors.
This is great news after Hayward left Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks in the third quarter with a left hip strain and did not return. He was averaging 29.3 points over his previous four contests, including a 44-point outing. Hayward is shooting over 40 percent from beyond the arc for the first time since 2012-13 when he was a member of the Utah Jazz.
numberFire’s models project Hayward for 29.3 FanDuel points versus the Raptors and he has a salary of $7,800 on Thursday’s five-game slate. The Raptors of The South are allowing the fifth-most FanDuel points per game this season.
