UPDATE: Gordon Hayward (ankle) will play and come off the bench. He will have a minutes limit, and we’re expecting him to hit the 20s.
We have some injury news today with Gordon Hayward (ankle) getting the questionable tag. Per Ira Winderman, the NBA wanted the Celtics to have a progression on their tags for out, doubtful and questionable, so maybe today was the target day after all.
ESPN reported that there’s a possibility that Hayward can play today, and the Celtics should prepare for him to be back. Woj mentioned it could even be likely. He’s been going through workouts this week and he went through some contact.
He’s likely going to have a minutes limit today, and we’ll have him in the 20s if he’s a go. That’ll take time from Brad Wanamaker, Grant Williams and maybe even Daniel Theis.
Boston Celtics vs. Miami Heat, 8:30 pm ET
Gordon Hayward (ankle) is questionable, Javonte Green (knee) is probable and Romeo Langford (groin) is out.
Andre Iguodala (back) is probable and Chris Silva (pubic bone) remains out.
