    Gordon Hayward Receives Another Doubtful Tag

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) has been listed as doubtful again for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. He's missed the last six consecutive games with hamstring soreness and seems ready to miss his seventh. Out of a possible 44 games so far, the 32-year-old has only been able to play 21 of them. At this rate, fantasy managers might want to go a different direction instead of just finding a streaming option while he uses the IR spot. Jalen McDaniels and Cody Martin remain the better options while Hayward remains sidelined.

    Gordon Hayward To Sit Out On Saturday

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. As expected, Hayward will miss this contest due to left hamstring soreness. The Hornets continue to be cautious with the veteran forward. That being said, fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if Hayward misses more time. In the meantime, Jalen McDaniels will continue to take over in the starting unit. He's worth using as a streaming option while Hayward is sidelined.

    Gordon Hayward Doubtful Against Boston

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is doubtful for Saturday's contest versus the visiting Celtics. The veteran has missed his last five games with hamstring soreness, so it appears he won't be on the floor against his former team. Nonetheless, if Hayward is officially ruled out, Jalen McDaniels will remain in the starting lineup. However, LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier should continue doing most of the heavy lifting on the offensive end.

    Gordon Hayward Unavailable On Thursday

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The veteran forward has already been sidelined basically a week because of this issue. Head coach Steve Clifford mentioned that Hayward is getting closer to a return. In the meantime, Jalen McDaniels will continue to start in the place of Hayward. He'll be a valuable fantasy option until Hayward is able to get on the court. Honestly, McDaniels might be worth holding once Hayward returns considering how injury-prone he has been throughout his career.

    Gordon Hayward Doubtful For Thursday

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is considered doubtful for Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The 32-year-old has been sidelined for roughly a week due to hamstring soreness. It doesn't sound like Hayward is ready to return yet, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to suit up on Thursday. In the meantime, Jalen McDaniels should continue to start in his place. Fantasy managers should check the waiver wire to see if McDaniels is available. He's certainly worth rostering right now with Hayward being banged up.

    Gordon Hayward Officially Out Wednesday

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is officially ruled out Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors. Hayward was doubtful to play so this comes at no surprise. Jalen McDaniels has been stellar in Hayward's absence and should continue to see a sizable role. Hayward's next chance to return will be Thursday's game in Toronto.

    Gordon Hayward Considered Doubtful On Tuesday

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) has received a second consecutive doubtful tag as he was listed the same before their last game and eventually didn't play. It would be surprising if he suddenly improved and played in Tuesday's contest, so it seems like he'll be missing his fourth consecutive game due to hamstring soreness. In his absence, Jalen McDaniels and Cody Martin remain decent streaming options for fantasy managers in need of forward help.

    Gordon Hayward Doubtful On Sunday

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is doubtful for Sunday's matchup with the Indiana Pacers. The veteran has missed the last two games because of hamstring soreness, so it appears he is working his way toward a third consecutive absence. With Kelly Oubre Jr. (hand) also out, Jalen McDaniels will continue to start and has done enough this year to warrant consideration in all fantasy formats. Cody Martin, who recently made his 2022-23 debut after undergoing left knee surgery, should handle north of 20 minutes from the bench.

    Gordon Hayward Officially Out On Friday

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. As expected, the veteran forward will sit this game out due to left hamstring soreness. Jalen McDaniels should slide into the starting five with Hayward sidelined. He's averaging 12.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.6 assists over his last five games. He's certainly worth a look as a streaming option while Hayward is sidelined, which could be for multiple games.

    Gordon Hayward Not Expected To Suit Up On Friday

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) was kept out of Wednesday's action and is now listed as doubtful for Friday's contest against the Milwaukee Bucks. The 32-year-old has missed big chunks of time this season, so hopefully, this sideline stint isn't as lengthy. If he does end up missing Friday's game, that will be his 19th of the season. While he's out, Jalen McDaniels and Cody Martin are both solid streaming options.

    Gordon Hayward To Sit Wednesday, As Expected

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) will miss Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Hayward was doubtful to play after leaving Monday's game early with hamstring soreness. Jalen McDaniels will get the start and is a good source of defensive stats while Hayward is out. Hayward has known to be injury prone and will need to make some strides in his recovery before Charlotte feels comfortable playing him.

    Gordon Hayward Doubtful To Play Wednesday

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is doubtful to play Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. Hayward left Monday's game with a sore hamstring and will likely miss Wednesday's game as well. Jalen McDaniels should jump into a bigger role immediately with Kelly Oubre Jr. (hand) expected to be sidelined for the next month or so. Given Hayward's injury history, McDaniels is in prime position for increased fantasy value and is a good source of defensive stats.

    Gordon Hayward Leaves Game With Hamstring Soreness

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Hayward experienced hamstring soreness during the fourth quarter and was promptly ruled out. Given his injury history, it would not be surprising to see the Hornets take precaution with Hayward. If Hayward were to miss any time due to the injury, Jalen McDaniels would likely be the biggest benefactor and be a borderline must-roster player with Kelly Oubre Jr. (hand) still out.

    Gordon Hayward May Return Friday

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (shoulder) remains out Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons, but reports state he may return as soon as Friday against the Atlanta Hawks. Hayward has been out indefinitely with a shoulder injury, but appears to be nearing a return to the court. If Hayward makes his return, Jalen McDaniels and Kelly Oubre Jr. figure to see a decrease in fantasy value.

    Gordon Hayward Improves To Questionable For Friday’s Game

    Charlotte Hornets small forward Gordon Hayward (shoulder) has been bumped up to questionable ahead of Friday's contest vs. the Bulls, a step in the right direction following an eight-game absence due to a left shoulder contusion. A potential return from Hayward would deliver Charlotte much-needed offensive punch with LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined again. Hayward has knocked down at least one triple in each of his eight appearances this season, averaging 17.4 PPG in the process. Fantasy managers will want to check back prior to tip-off as his status will largely affect the upside and floors of numerous Hornets.

    Gordon Hayward Misses An Eighth Consecutive Game

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (shoulder) still isn't ready to return to action Wednesday against his hometown Pacers. He will be sitting out an eighth consecutive game with a left shoulder contusion. With Hayward missing and the Hornets having suffered various other injuries, Kelly Oubre Jr. has enjoyed a lengthy spell as a starter and Jalen McDaniels has been able to get some very good minutes. Hayward will get his next chance to return Friday versus Cleveland, although we haven't heard anything regarding his recovery and it might take a while until he's back healthy again.

    Gordon Hayward Out Against The Heat

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (shoulder) won't play on Saturday against Miami, marking his sixth straight absence. LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Cody Martin (knee) remain out as well, which will defer the scoring duties to P.J. Washington, Kelly Oubre Jr., and Terry Rozier. Dennis Smith Jr. (ankle) will be involved offensively if he can suit up. However, considering Smith is questionable, James Bouknight may gain streaming value in deep fantasy setups.

    Gordon Hayward Misses A Fourth Consecutive Game

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (shoulder) will remain unavailable for Wednesday's matchup against the Trail Blazers. He hurt his left shoulder a week ago against Chicago, leaving Charlotte without another key player. Hayward's injury allowed Jalen McDaniels to make his first start of the season last week, but it was a four-point dud from him and head coach Steve Clifford quickly relegated him back to the bench. He's a very inconsistent performer and it's hard to trust him to get the job done. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) also remaining on the shelf, Terry Rozier and Kelly Oubre Jr. will continue to lead the Hornets attack.

    Gordon Hayward Out Against Washington

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (shoulder) is out on Monday against Washington. The veteran is dealing with a left shoulder contusion, so he will miss his third consecutive contest. LaMelo Ball (ankle) also remains out, opening the door for Kelly Oubre Jr., P.J. Washington, and Terry Rozier to continue to be the featured options on the offensive end. Dennis Smith Jr. (ankle), who intends to play, may also get involved, but he likely won't produce as he did while Rozier was out of the lineup.

    Gordon Hayward Listed As Out Against Memphis

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (shoulder) has been listed as out for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He exited the team's last game on Wednesday with the same shoulder pain and now he'll miss a full game as well. Jalen McDaniels was the biggest beneficiary after Hayward left and he looks to be the best pickup again. Fantasy managers looking for a forward should for sure take him as a streaming option coming up, especially if Hayward has to miss any more time.

    Gordon Hayward Won't Return In Second Half

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (shoulder) won't return to the second half of Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This is a tough break for fantasy managers as Hayward just can't seem to stay on the court. He finished with seven points, three rebounds, and two assists in 16 minutes. Hopefully this isn't serious and he won't miss significant time from this injury. Jalen McDaniels started in the second half and would likely see more minutes going forward, assuming Hayward does miss time.

    Heat Targeting Gordon Hayward

    Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward has received interest from the Heat, according to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. Miami hasn't been successful in acquiring Kevin Durant or Donovan Mitchell, so the team is reportedly looking to bring in Hayward to bolster its roster. However, with the veteran owed more than $61 million over the next two seasons, making a deal for his services difficult. The 32-year-old regressed from a statistical standpoint last season, finishing with averages of 15.9 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.0 steals. While Hayward's shooting percentages from deep have stayed consistent during the last few seasons, he's had issues staying on the floor, most recently dealing with a foot injury. Wherever he ends up, he'll need to stay healthy for any fantasy manager to benefit from his presence on their roster.
