Mark Daigneault provides injury update on Gordon Hayward

The Oklahoma City Thunder strengthened their roster with the addition of veteran wing Gordon Hayward during the NBA trade deadline.

In exchange, OKC sent the Charlotte Hornets a package of Tre Mann, Davis Bertans, Vasilije Micic, two future second-round picks and cash considerations.

It’s an exciting addition as the 33-year-old is a veteran wing off the bench who can also start and close for the Thunder.

The only caveat with the acquisition is Hayward’s health — which has haunted him for several years. This season is no different as he’s been out of action since Dec.
