Your Morning Dump... Where Gordon Hayward's recovery nears its end (finally!)

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big story line. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.

Now, in late June, we can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel and look forward to seeing him on the court again.

Celtics coach Brad Stevens said forward Gordon Hayward is doing “great” following a May 31 procedure to remove a plate and screws from his surgically repaired left leg.
