About this model: Net Impact can't measure floor spacing, help defense rotations, or playmaking gravity — so wings and guards are slightly undervalued vs bigs. How Net Impact works

IMPACT TIMELINE

Game-by-game performance vs average. Green = above average, red = below.

PATTERNS

Struggling. Hayes has posted negative impact in 83% of games this season. The production rarely outweighs the cost.

Streaky shooter — only cracks 45% from the field in 30% of games. Efficiency is all over the place night-to-night.

Good defender on his best nights, but it comes and goes. Some games Hayes locks in defensively, others he gets picked apart.

Flat trajectory all season — first-half impact -3.8, second-half -3.5. No major shifts, which fits with the overall steadiness.

Tends to go on runs. Longest hot streak: 2 games. Longest cold streak: 7 games.
