Mike Gorman on Gordon Hayward returning this season: ‘I just believe it’

Coach Brad Stevens said Gordon Hayward is not returning to the court this season, but Celtics play-by-play commentator Mike Gorman isn’t quite convinced.

Gorman said Wednesday morning he thinks Hayward is rigorously working out with hopes of being ready to play at some point before the postseason ends. The Boston native explained his reasoning on 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Toucher and Rich:

Everybody tells me he is working out eight, nine hours a day, just religiously working out, doing everything they ask of him and more.

It seems to me if Gordon Hayward thought his next basketball game he was going to play in was going to be in next October, he might not be working out nine hours a day right now.
