Gordon Hayward sidelined with left hand fracture

Hayward collided into Aldridge late in the 1st half

Gordon Hayward who was having a great comeback season has left tonight's game and the Celtics have promptly diagnosed his injury as a left hand fracture. Not sure if you want to say Hayward ran into Aldridge or LaMarcus gave him a somewhat dirty pick. Regardless, Hayward can't seem to catch a break with the Celtics (no pun intended). Luckily at least it's his left hand and hopefully he'll be back soon. We'll update with any more details or a timetable.

Boston's Gordon Hayward will see a specialist on Monday to determine need for surgery on fractured left hand, agent Mark Bartelstein of @PrioritySports tells ESPN. If needed, surgery will take place Monday. Timeline on a return is unclear until then.
