Hayward puts on All-Star caliber display in Charlotte
Jeremy Brevard-USA TODAY Sports Well, that’s it. The Celtics officially closed out the decade with a win against Charlotte. There were some solid performances across the board with Jayson Tatum, Kemba Walker, and Gordon Hayward finishing the game with 20+ points each. There were also Enes Kanter’s double-double and six blocks in under 23 minutes.
However, it was Hayward that looked especially good. For all the issues he has had to start the season--first, with his broken hand and then the issues arising with his foot--it was pleasing to see him reach the level he was playing at before he sustained the freak injury in San Antonio earlier in the year.
