With $34 million waiting for him, opting in originally seemed like a no-brainer.<\/p>\n<p>Another possibility was for Hayward to stay and agree on a renegotiated contract with more years at somewhat less money.<\/p>\n<p>However, when Hayward didn\u2019t declare his intentions on Tuesday \u2013 the original deadline \u2013 the picture became unclear for a suddenly jittery Celtics fanbase.<\/p>\n<p>The worry was justified. Hayward walks away and is free to sign with any team. The Celtics get no compensation and now have a 6-foot-7 hole in their rotation.<\/p>\n<p>As we all know, Haywood\u2019s potential Boston career was effectively destroyed after just 5:15 of playing time in his first game. Last season he also suffered a broken hand and badly sprained ankle. In three star-crossed seasons with Boston, he played in just 125 regular season games and 14 playoff contests.<\/p>\n<p>In other contract news:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Boston has declined a qualifying offer to guard Brad Wanamaker, making him an unrestricted free agent, source tells ESPN.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/wojespn\/status\/1329532303811506183?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 19, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Per source, although the Celtics declined to issue Brad Wanamaker a qualifying offer, there remains a chance that he could return to Boston, particularly if Hayward does not.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Adam Himmelsbach (@AdamHimmelsbach) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdamHimmelsbach\/status\/1329537020943798273?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 19, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Much more to come about all this during the rest of the week, here on Red\u2019s Army.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The decision is in: Gordon Hayward is no longer under contract with the Boston Celtics.
