An MRI result for the left foot of Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward came back clean, coach Brad Stevens told reporters Friday.

Hayward will not play in Boston's game against the Detroit Pistons on Friday, but Stevens said the injury isn't a long-term concern.

Hayward, 29, missed Wednesday's victory over the Dallas Mavericks because of soreness in the foot.

Stevens said Wednesday that Hayward has been dealing with lingering foot soreness since before injuring his hand in November.

Hayward is averaging 17.5 points and 4.1 assists this season.
