CHARLOTTE — As Talen Horton-Tucker exited the court on Saturday night, a smattering of Utah Jazz fans crowded around the visiting team tunnel in Charlotte and chanted, “T.H.T! T.H.T!”

The Jazz guard had just scored 37 points, dished out 10 assists and grabbed nine rebounds, coming just a single rebound shy of his first triple-double and the Jazz fans in attendance weren’t going to let him leave the building without showing some love.

The NBA stats crew, after a postgame review, rescinded one of Horton-Tucker’s rebounds shortly after the game concluded, so he actually ended up two rebounds short of the elusive Jazz regular-season triple-double, but that didn’t take away from what he did to help push the Jazz to a 119-111 win over the Charlotte Hornets.
