Hayward was on fire Wednesday, recording his third 30-plus point game of the season, as well as shooting a season-high 81.3 clip from the field.

Hayward returned to a full workload in his second game back after lingering soreness (back) caused a brief absence. Monday's game marked the first contest since the season opener in which Hayward has attempted over 20 shots.

Hayward currently ranks within the top-five small forwards in fantasy.
