Gordon Hayward and The Player’s Tribune continued their semi-regular updates on the Boston Celtics wing’s progress through rehabilitation from his ankle/leg injuries by posting a short video of Hayward lightly jogging on the Celtics practice court.
NBA Skills Trainer Jason Smeathers, who regularly works with Hayward, provided an update of his own that indicated this was Hayward’s first jog on the court.
Hayward suffered the ankle/leg injuries five minutes into his Boston debut on opening night against the Cleveland Cavaliers when he landed awkwardly after attempting to catch a lob pass.
Hayward and the Celtics have provided regular updates on Hayward’s rehab, but have declined to set a timetable for his return.
