Gordon Hayward coming off the bench

[insidehoops]

Hayward said the transition back to the bench, where he played eight games last season, has been smooth for him.

"It doesn’t really change that much as far as what I’m trying to do," Hayward said. "I’m able to get some more touches a little bit, able to run some pick-and-rolls, get out and run. In that first group we have some pretty good post players down there we can feed, and in the second group we change it up a little bit and run a little more."
