Jazz forward Taylor Hendricks suffers horrific injury

A gruesome scene happened with 5:59 remaining in the third quarter of Monday’s game between the Dallas Mavericks and Utah Jazz at

American Airlines Center.

Jazz forward Taylor Hendricks tumbled to the floor after he was jogging on the right side of the basket on Utah’s end of the court. No one touched Hendricks as he tripped over himself and landed with his right leg bent sideways, and wound up suffering a fractured right fibula and dislocated right ankle.

As fans looked on in horror, paramedics immediately rushed onto the court and carted Hendricks off the floor.
