You really can see the familial resemblance.

Sharing an obviously-photoshopped picture of his infant son Gordon “GT” Hayward V asleep on his chest, “Stache” Gordon — as Hayward has come to be called after sporting a throwback moustache throughout much of the Disney restart bubble — wrote “It’s hard to believe how much GT looks like me!” Monday evening in an Instagram post making light of his facial hair.

The youngest Hayward was born while the Celtics wing was in the Disney bubble doing his best to try and get Boston back to the NBA Finals for the first time in a decade.

And while that effort ultimately fell short of the team’s lofty postseason goals, it certainly wasn’t for a lack of effort on Hayward’s part.

Playing on an ankle that was in truth at least two weeks away from being fully healed after a severe sprain in the Celtics’ first-round series with the Philadelphia 76ers, Boston just didn’t have the experience and health to get past a determined Miami Heat squad in the Eastern Conference Finals.

And while it’s certainly possible that moustache may have used up all its luck getting Boston deep enough for the former Bulldog to return to the floor, it will have to wait until next season to test whether doubling up on Hayward ‘staches will be enough to get Boston to the Finals.
