Hawks' Trae Young stuns Jazz with halfcourt game-winner

Young sank a 49-footer to give the Atlanta Hawks a 124-121 win over the Utah Jazz on Tuesday night. The Jazz fell to 9-26 with the defeat, and 2-13 at home.

That's the worst home record in the NBA this season. Season-ticket holders at the Delta Center have seen only two victories from the home team this season. Four of the Jazz's 13 home losses have come by three points or less, though Tuesday's game may have been the most painful, just because Sexton's shot gave them hope.

But even on a night where All-Star Lauri Markkanen scored 35 points, Sexton went for 24 and a season-high 21 points from center Walker Kessler, Young was simply too much for the Jazz to overcome.

The NBA's assist leader (12.2 per game) had 20 assists to go with his 24 points, with five of them coming in the fourth quarter. It was his third game with 20 or more assists this season. As bad as the Jazz have been at home this year, Young has been just as good on the road, averaging 24.3 points, better than his 20.5 in home games.

At least one person in Salt Lake went home happy. One lucky fan went home with one of Young's shoes after the game.

Fans in Utah can't expect to a see a home win this year. Sometimes, they might get a shoe.
