The Boston Celtics announced on Friday evening that forward Gordon Hayward is probable for Saturday night’s matchup with the Chicago Bulls.
Hayward missed Thursday’s loss to the Milwaukee Bucks due to a sprained right ankle. The 28-year-old told Adam Himmelsbach of the Boston Globe on Friday that he believes he’ll be able to play against the Bulls.
Hayward told me he feels really good after today’s session and thinks he’ll be able to play tomorrow.
