Hayward has a $34.2 million player option for 2021, but a report earlier this month stated he wants out of Boston. The 30-year-old also recently has been connected to the Indiana Pacers in trade rumors, so a sign-and-trade is a real possibility.
During the 2019-20 season, Hayward averaged 17.5 points, 6.7 rebounds and 4.1 assists through 52 games played.
