Okay, it's April and the Utah Jazz don't even have 25 wins this season. We're a rabid fanbase that grew up on 50 win seasons. This year has been a struggle. But it's not all doom and gloom here because starting shooting guard, erstwhile small forward, Gordon Hayward is set to make franchise history.
No, he didn't get the new fastest time for a Zerg rush 2 vs 2 victory in Starcraft (that record still held by Greg Ostertag who thought he was filling out his taxes online). But he looks to be the first Jazzman since Pistol Pete Maravich to finish the season averaging at least 15.0 ppg, 5.0 rpg, 5.0 apg, and 1.5 spg. And if Hayward, currently averaging 16.1 ppg, 5.0 rpg, 5.2 apg, and 1.5 spg, does finish the season he would join an elite 55 person club. And in doing so, be the first person to do it for the Utah Jazz. (Pistol did it with New Orleans).
Assuming Gordon does it (if he plays the next 5 games that means he'll need 75 more points, 25 more rebounds, 25 more assists, and 8 steals) he'll be in very special company indeed:
