Gordon Hayward, who was limited in the first half of game four of the first round series between the L.A. Clippers and Utah Jazz with food poisoning, will not play in the second half. Hayward was on IV treatment pre-game and played 9 minutes, scoring 3 points, before returning to the locker room for further treatment.
Utah's Gordon Hayward will not return to Game 4 tonight. He has food poisoning, team says.
