Jazz Announce Rookie Jersey Numbers, Talen Horton-Tucker’s #0 Stolen

The Utah Jazz rookies have already made their decisions on what numbers they plan to wear at the start of the season. Despite not even being drafted to the team 24 hours ago, selecting the jersey number these players look to wear for the minimum of the next four years is probably at the forefront of these draftees' minds.

According to Dana Greene of ABC4 News, Taylor Hendricks will wear #0, Keyonte George will wear #3, and Brice Sensabaugh will wear #8. We have all single digits for the new guys, and honestly, all solid numbers that will look good once on-court. Along with this report, Greene states all three rookies should be in Utah after the weekend.

Just got a heads up at Jazz first round picks Taylor Hendricks will wear #0, Keyonte George #3 and Brice Sensabaugh will wear #8. All three are expected to be in town Monday. #TakeNote

Something to note in this is how this will fare for Talen Horton-Tucker, and even leads to question the team’s long-term commitment to the soon-to-be 23-year-old. He did wear #5 while playing with the Los Angeles Lakers and #11 during his time at Iowa State, so maybe we see a transition back to his roots. However, he is slated to hit restricted free agency within the next two weeks. Maybe this is a potential signal of how Horton-Tucker’s future looks in Salt Lake City.

With still a ton of time until we see any signings come to form, it will be interesting to see if Talen Horton-Tucker remains a Jazzman next season. In the meantime, we will get the exciting opportunity to see the new faces on the team in Utah come Monday rocking their new jerseys and numbers.
