— TMZ (@TMZ) July 28, 2021
Jaxson Hayes was allegedly so forceful with police that an officer was injured, and the cops had to put out an “officer needs help” radio call.
Hayes and at least one officer was hospitalized, but it appears that Jaxson’s injuries are minor.
Jaxson Hayes was initially drafted No. 8 overall in the 2019 Draft, but his rights were traded to the New Orleans Pelicans.
After starting a significant amount of games during his rookie season, Hayes only started three in 2020. He averaged 7.5 points per game on 62.5% shooting and grabbed 4.3 rebounds per game.
It is now unclear what the future holds for the once promising Jaxson Hayes.
