Gordon Hayward made a surprising appearance on the injury report Wednesday and now, the Boston Celtics will be even more shorthanded when they play their first game in nearly a week tonight against the Dallas Mavericks.
Hayward has been ruled out versus the Mavericks due to a sore left foot. It is unclear how Hayward suffered the ailment that will make him miss his 14th game this season because of injury.
“He had a sore foot for a while early on and when he was out with the hand, they treated it and felt better about it,” said Celtics coach Brad Stevens on his weekly appearance on 98.
