Gordon Hayward (hamstring) questionable Thursday for Hornets
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday against the Chicago Bulls.
Hayward didn't play the second half of a back-to-back on Tuesday, but he should be able to return to the court for Thursday's matchup. Jalen McDaniels will likely draw another start if Hayward winds up being ruled out again. LaMelo Ball (ankle/wrist) could also remain sidelined, which would leave more opportunities available for McDaniels on offense.
numberFire's models project Hayward for 24.8 minutes and 21.6 FanDuel points on Thursday. McDaniels is averaging 30.4 minutes and 26.0 FanDuel points as a starter when Hayward is inactive this season.
