Gordon Hayward Stats

Free agent forward Gordon Hayward has agreed to a four-year, $120 million deal with the Charlotte Hornets. With Charlotte not having the cap space to make the deal outright, there's going to be some corresponding move here. Hayward faded a bit in Boston on a team full of offensive threats, but will be either the first or second option for Charlotte, depending on how quickly LaMelo Ball adapts to the NBA. Expect Hayward's numbers to rise across the board, putting him back in the conversation to be a third round fantasy pick.

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward has decided to opt out of his $34 million player option for next season. The 30-year-old forward is walking away from quite a lot of money, but he should get a solid offer in free agency. The Atlanta Hawks, New York Knicks, and Indiana Pacers have already reportedly shown interest in Hayward. The injury history is always a concern, but Hayward can be a top-50 value fantasy asset when healthy. The difficult part has been him actually staying healthy and on the court. He should be a reliable middle round option on draft day.

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward will reportedly get the deadline for him to make a decision on his player option extended. The option is worth $34.2 million, so it'd be surprising to see Hayward decline that offer. He won't get anywhere near that kind of money in free agency, especially with his injury history. Hayward will get until Thursday evening to decide what he wants to do. The Celtics have reportedly received plenty of interest regarding Hayward's availability. It'll be interesting to see if he suits up in a Celtics uniform this season.
