Gordon Hayward’s wife Robyn released a statement Wednesday after his horrific injury against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The wife of the Boston Celtics forward wrote the following on Instagram:

I truly believe this! Thanks for all the prayers for Gordon and our family. It sucks, but this is what happens and you move on to the next step. Gordon is so tough and is the hardest worker, so I know he will come back stronger. He’s wired differently. Gordons a true competitor and will take this and use it as fuel to be that much better. This is an obstacle that he’s more than ready to over come. Keep praying for him though he needs some lovin!

You never like to see anybody get hurt, and you definitely don’t like seeing class act athletes like Hayward go down. The guy has been a shining example for younger players ever since his days lighting up teams for the Butler Bulldogs.

Hopefully he bounces back and is on the court before too long.
