Hayward's rehab progresses to jogging on court

If anyone still thinks that Hayward will be back this season . . . it's a long, slow journey back with one small step at a time, but at least he's progressing.

If the jogging in the video is actually where Hayward is in early April, he will not/should not play this year.

I hope to see him back to 100% by training camp in late September when the team adds at least another young player and some more depth guys for a run at either #18 or maybe #19.

I was jogging on the treadmill this morning.

MY NOTE:  "Resume basketball activities in 6-8 weeks" and full strength by training camp.  Perfect.

All good news.

Since his bone has healed he should be all set to come back.  I am sure he is really anxious.  

I think the big issue will be mobility.  Getting rid of the stiffness.  

The great thing about him returning is that we do not have to rely him.  Brad can ease him back into the rotation.  During preseason we should get a good look at him.  How he moves laterally and his hops should tell us something.

It is great that Celtics fans are very supportive.
