Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward has been diagnosed with a right foot sprain, the team announced Saturday.

He'll be re-evaluated in approximately four weeks.

Hayward suffered the injury during Friday's win over the Indiana Pacers.

After arriving in Charlotte as part of a sign-and-trade with the Boston Celtics this past offseason, the 31-year-old has helped the fourth-seeded Hornets compile a 25-23 record.

Hayward's injury is the latest blow to a Charlotte team that is without star rookie LaMelo Ball. The third overall pick in the 2020 draft is expected to miss the remainder of the campaign with a fractured wrist.

Hayward is averaging 19.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 4.1 assists while shooting 41.4% from distance in 44 starts. He's in the first season of a four-year, $120-million contract.
