Pistons' Killian Hayes nears return: 'Nobody wants to be injured in your first year'

Detroit — Pistons rookie Killian Hayes is nearing a return to the court this season.

After sustaining a torn labrum in his right hip early in the season, Hayes was only able to play in the first seven games of the season before beginning rehabilitation.

Killian Hayes and the Pistons have seen improvement as the rookie point guard works his way back from a hip injury.

That process has gone well, and the 19-year-old is ramping up his workload, and he could be back in the lineup in a couple of weeks.

“I was just talking with the doctors and it's probably like two to three weeks,” Hayes said Tuesday.
