Gordon Hayward Credits Full-Team Effort In Celtics’ Playoff-Clinching Win

Gordon Hayward played a big role in Boston’s 114-111 win over the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday, but the Celtics forward knows it couldn’t have happened without his teammates.

Hayward amassed a double-double in the win that clinched a playoff berth for the C’s. The 29-year-old Hayward also assisted on a crucial Daniel Theis’ 3-pointer to tie the game with 1:41 left in the fourth quarter.

But if you ask Hayward, he’s not taking full credit.

“Everybody had a hand in this win! #Clinched #BleedGreen,” Hayward captioned his latest Instagram post featuring Theis and the February’s Eastern Conference Player of the Month Jayson Tatum.
