Celtics' Gordon Hayward admits follow-up surgery was not expected to be a part of recovery process
Hayward plans to return at the beginning of next season
In his personal blog, Gordon Hayward admitted that the second surgery he recently had was not expected but he plans to be ready for the upcoming of next NBA season.
Per ESPN, "[The follow-up surgery was] not something we were expecting to be a part of this recovery process but I'm happy to report that I'll be back out there resuming rehab soon, with my sights set firmly on being back to my usual self for the start of next season," wrote Hayward, who admitted the procedure was deemed "very rare" by his doctors.
Added Hayward: "I'm excited to get back to it. I think at the recovery pace I'm currently on, I'll probably start running again in July. Once I get started, I'll be jogging, then running, and then cutting and moving, and all that could happen within one to two weeks of each other, to where by the end of July I am playing full court, 5-on-5 basketball. And that's probably the most exciting thing I could tell all of you."
