SALT LAKE CITY — Even during the playoffs, fans often use the final minutes of a blowout game to get a head start out of Vivint Arena to beat the traffic.

But during the final two months of the season, contests that have well been decided gave a reason for fans to stick around, and even provided some of their loudest cheering. That’s because on these rare occasions, it meant that point guard David Stockton was likely going to get some playing time.

The son of Jazz Hall of Famer John Stockton, David Stockton first signed a 10-day contract with Utah on March 17 as the Jazz became a bit shorthanded due to injuries.
