Sam Amick, one of the guys who initially reported the signing, tweeted:
Gordon Hayward's agent, Mark Bartelstein, is indeed saying he hasn't made decision yet. Meanwhile, Celtics celebrating his alleged decision.
Zach Lowe retweeted, adding that he's receiving the same info.
It sounds very possible to me that Hayward told the Celtics he's coming before he told the Jazz and now it's out but Hayward/his people are denying it because they want to announce their way.
I mean, this has always been the more likely/logical scenario than numerous reputable reporters getting the same thing wrong all simultaneously.
EDIT: But at this point, he's doing more damage to himself with the cover-up than the original issue.
I don't understand how he's doing damage to himself by waiting to make the announcement his own way.
