However, Fenerbahce has not disclosed a specific timeline for Hayes-Davis' return to action.
This season, Hayes-Davis has demonstrated remarkable consistency, averaging almost 33 minutes per game and contributing 13.4 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 15.8 PIR across 20 games.
The 29-year-old's performance hasn't gone unnoticed, earning praise from fellow forward Chima Moneke of Baskonia. Moneke included Hayes-Davis in his list of most underrated EuroLeague players.
"I remember some of the conversations some of the people had about him when he was in Barcelona and was not playing this well. What people say about you when you are struggling is just funny. This is the Nigel Hayes that I am sure he knew he was the whole time. I am glad he is getting some recognition, but I think he deserves more."
Last season, Hayes-Davis averaged 30 minutes over 39 EuroLeague games and scored 10.5 points per match.
