Boston Celtics general manager Danny Ainge had an awesome reaction to the news of Gordon Hayward and his wife, Robyn, welcoming their fourth child on Wednesday.
Ainge retweeted the news of the baby's birth, and he joked that he's already envisioning the junior Hayward in Celtics green.

Robyn announced the arrival of Gordon Theodore Hayward on Instagram earlier on the day., just hours before the Celtics take on the Miami Heat in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
“Our little man is finally here! This is Theo, Gordon Theodore Hayward. If you ask @gordonhayward his name is GT, but if you ask me and the girls his name is Theo. I miss you bunches @gordonhayward and can’t wait for you to meet him. We’re ready to watch you tonight!”

Gordon Hayward was initially planning to leave the bubble to be with Robyn for the birth, but the ankle injury allowed him to spend quality time with her family. To recall, the Celtics forward left the bubble and went back to Boston to rehab his Grade 3 ankle sprain — a process that took a month.
For all the rightful congratulations being sent Robyn and Gordon's way, Robyn did receive a good-natured roasting on social media for her photos of Theo — specifically for turning the newborn face-down to display the “Baby G” nickname on the back of his Celtics onesie.
“I think his ankle’s fine right now,” head coach Brad Stevens said after the birth announcement. “I don’t think he’s thought about it all afternoon obviously…Very, very happy to hear the news.”
