The Boston Celtics' recruitment of Gordon Hayward is officially underway.
After meeting with the Miami Heat on Saturday, the unrestricted free agent was spotted at a Boston airport with his old college coach, Brad Stevens. Multiple reports had the Celtics taking Hayward to Fenway Park - with the Red Sox on the road in Toronto - for a video pitch.

One resourceful person in the neighborhood even captured some of the video.
