WALTHAM, Mass. -- Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward has begun light on-court jogging in the latest step in his recovery from the fractured ankle he suffered on opening night.
The Players' Tribune posted a video Monday showing Hayward jogging alongside trainer Jason Smeathers at Boston's practice facility.
Smeathers noted it was Hayward's first on-court run since the injury when he tweeted: "Doing some pace setting for [Hayward] for the first jog back on the court."
Hayward had been running on the team's alter-G anti-gravity treadmill and slowly ramping himself up to a level where he could be cleared to begin running on his full bodyweight.
