Some players never need to be questioned about their love and dedication. You can watch a player's career advancing from his very first season and just know that he has put in some grueling hours in the offseason.

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward is one of those players. Hayward has transformed from a skinny kid who could play to one of the most respected players at his position during his short time in the NBA.

Hayward has played seven seasons in the NBA. He averaged 5.4 points per game in his rookie season and continued to work to get better beyond that. During the 2016-17 season, Hayward ended the year averaging 21.9 points 3.5 assists, and 5.4 rebounds per game. That shows how hard he has been working, and one of the biggest reasons the Celtics went after him once the opportunity presented itself.

The 6-foot-8 forward loves basketball and that's not even a question at this point, but there is actually one thing he loves as much as basketball that was little known about him, and that is video gaming.

During some downtime at home, Mrs. Hayward decided to show the world what he really likes, as he entered the kids' playroom to unashamedly try to convince her to give the kids a bath so he could play video games.

Video games are Gordon Hayward's point of relaxation and he is a big-time gamer since he was a kid, and while family time and home responsibilities take up some of his time, Hayward still finds the time to get in a bunch of gaming sessions with his friends when he's not on the court.
