Utah Jazz forward Taylor Hendriks broke his leg and severely dislocated his ankle during his team’s game Monday night… and the horrific injury was unfortunately all captured by TV cameras.

The horrific moment occurred in the third quarter of Utah’s tilt with the Mavericks in Dallas, when Hendricks slipped and landed awkwardly on his leg.

In the video the game broadcast, his entire body weight can be seen falling to the ground – his limb snapping beneath him – and almost immediately he began writhing in pain.

Play was stopped and trainers rushed to his aid – and after a few minutes he was placed on a stretcher and taken to the dressing room. He was eventually diagnosed with a broken right fibula – plus a dislocated ankle – and, according to ESPNThe 20-year-old is now expected to miss the remainder of the 2024/25 season.

“He put in a lot of hard work,” Hardy said. “He’s a great kid, and so we’re really just trying to focus on him, on his health, keeping him going and keeping his spirits up as he starts the road to recovery. But these are the moments in sports that are worthless.”

Hendricks was selected No. 9 overall in the 2023 NBA Draft and has started all three of Utah’s games this season.
