For only the fourth time since he opted to leave Utah to play for the Boston Celtics, Gordon Hayward is expected to face his former team in Salt Lake City on Monday night when his Charlotte Hornets take on the Jazz.

Hayward returned to the Hornets' lineup Saturday after missing eight games with left hamstring soreness. He scored nine points in Charlotte's 122-118 victory at Atlanta.

The Hornets have now won two straight, both on the road, after a five-game losing streak.

"We certainly have to learn how to win," Hayward said.
