Gordon Hayward pleased with shooting performance

Gordon Hayward has said that he is pleased with his shooting performance in the Utah Jazz's win over the Oklahoma City Thunder last night.

The shooting guard, who has averaged 17.1 points per game this season, scored a career-high 37 in the 112-101 win.

The 23-year-old told reporters: "Once you hit a couple of tough ones then the basket starts looking pretty big. You feel like you can almost throw up anything and it will go in.

"I was in the zone a little bit tonight. It's finally good to be there. It's been a rough season shooting for me."

The Jazz play again on Friday against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
