Andrew Bogut calls Jerryd Hayne ‘the feel-good story of the year’

At the Warriors’ media day Monday, Andrew Bogut said he caught up with Jerryd Hayne in May and gushed about the former rugby player, who made the transition to football with the 49ers.

Bogut said he got in only three or four words during a dinner with Hayne, because the former rugby player needed to talk about being homesick and was in a whirlwind of trying to learn the 49ers’ playbook.

Hayne came to a Warriors’ playoff game against New Orleans, and Bogut will join his Warriors teammates at the 49ers’ game Sunday.
