Shorts and should have no trouble offering Hayes a significant role.<\/p>\n<p>The 23-year-old French playmaker spent most of last season in the G League, where he averaged over 16 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists, and 2 steals per game for the Long Island Nets.<\/p>\n<p>In over 200 NBA games, Hayes posted career averages of 8.1 points and 5.2 assists, but struggled with efficiency, shooting just 38% from the field and 28% from three.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hayes was the 7th overall pick of the 2020 NBA
