Gordon Hayward Stats

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (thumb) is out on Friday against the Rockets. His season is probably over, which isn't surprising, considering the Hornets have nothing to play for. With Kelly Oubre Jr. (shoulder) also sidelined, Bryce McGowens should remain in the starting lineup. The 20-year-old has averaged 11.0 points in five starts this season. However, McGowens' scoring output may be significantly higher with a favorable matchup with Houston on tap.

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (thumb) won't play against the Raptors. The veteran has a sprained thumb and missed the last three games as a result. However, Charlotte has nothing to play for, so Hayward's year is probably done. Nevertheless, with Kelly Oubre Jr. (shoulder), Terry Rozier (foot), and P.J. Washington (ankle) also out, Bryce McGowens, averaging 8.8 points and 3.3 rebounds in four starts this season, will remain an attractive DFS value option. At the same time, Theo Maledon, Svi Mykhailiuk, and JT Thor will also see increased fantasy interest.

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (thumb) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's meeting with Toronto. The Hornets are limping to the end of the regular season, so it wouldn't be surprising if Hayward didn't suit up again in 2022-23. Charlotte also has P.J. Washington (foot), Dennis Smith Jr. (toe), and Kelly Oubre Jr. (shoulder) as questionable for the matchup against the Raptors. To make matters worse, Terry Rozier won't play, meaning Svi Mykhailiuk, Bryce McGowens, and Theo Maledon may be the featured offensive options on Saturday.

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (thumb) isn't expected to play in Tuesday's game against OKC. This isn't good news for Charlotte, especially considering Terry Rozier (foot) is out and Kelly Oubre Jr. (shoulder) is questionable. Assuming the sprained thumb keeps Hayward out of the lineup, Oubre would benefit on the scoring end. However, if he doesn't play either, Dennis Smith Jr. and P.J. Washington will be the primary scoring options, while guys like Svi Mykhailiuk and Mark Williams will see a boost in fantasy value.
