Gordon Hayward

There is no doubt, especially with Chris Paul now off the market (he was never really on it I guess) and a member of the Houston Rockets, that Gordon Hayward is the grand prize in NBA free agency 2017. Hayward is 27 and coming off a career year where he set a new career-high in [...]

The Boston Celtics have high hopes for this offseason. How high, you ask? Try adding-both-Paul-George-and-Gordon-Hayward high. I’m not even sure if online bookies like sportingbet have that one listed with odds. Could the Celtics possibly pull it off? From The Vertical’s Adrian Wojnarowski: The Boston Celtics are pursuing an aggressive summer plan of sequencing the [...]

While the rumor mill has been churning for sometime now about Gordon Hayward reuniting with his college coach Brad Stevens and bolting Utah to become the newest member of the Boston Celtics, one other free agent target of the Celtics has taken a back seat: Blake Griffin.

Derrick Favors has no illusions about his future with the Utah Jazz. He knows there might not be one. Per The Salt Lake Tribune‘s Tony Jones: Favors and [agent Wallace] Prather have done the math. They know the possibility of a trade exists this summer or at the trade deadline in February. … “Utah’s paid Rudy [...]

  As everyone wonders whether the Boston Celtics will consider trading the No. 1 pick in this year’s draft, we must remember that they also have cap space. That’s what, in large part, makes their situation truly unique. They can carve out max room and still have the No. 1 pick. Or they can sign [...]

Gordon Hayward is just like every other NBA free agent whose season ended less than a half-second ago: He doesn’t know what he plans to do next, be it re-sign with the Utah Jazz, leave for greener pastures or even opt out of his contract at all. From ESPN.com: Utah Jazz forward Gordon Hayward said [...]
