NBA Summer Workout SZN: Gordon Hayward Edition

OH HELL YES!!!!!!!!

Part of me feels like this needed a NSFW but whatever. The other day we talked about his sit down interview where he talked about his rehab and getting back to playing 5-on-5 in August, well now we have some video footage of what that work looks like annnnnnnnnnd holy shit. You know what, let me give you a minute to rewatch that video.

For me, it’s hard to pick a favorite part. Is it the first little sidestep three? Maybe that one dribble step back that hit the bottom of the net? That turnaround fadeaway definitely made me feel things, I am mad enough to admit it. Or you could be conventional and go with the 18 straight threes. No big deal, that’s a common thing for guys on this team in case you weren’t aware

I don’t want to brag, but the Celtics are about to have a starting lineup where all five guys shot at least 39% from three. Is that good? That feels good. Honestly the only thing that could have made that Hayward video better is if we saw him dunk off that left foot. I know he talked about it in that interview, but that’s the money shot I need on this Saturday morning.

I cannot stress how much I love NBA Summer Workout SZN, and it’s videos just like this that are the reason why. I cannot wait for everyone to be reminded just how goddamn awesome Gordon Hayward is at playing basketball.

LET’S GO!!!
