Jazz fans have been waiting for this moment for a long time.
In his first game back in Utah since leaving the Jazz for the Boston Celtics in free agency two summers ago, Gordon Hayward was booed, then booed some more. Yes, Jazz fans are still sour about Hayward after he left the Jazz high and dry.
But Jazz fans got the last laugh Friday night as Utah took down Boston 123-115, at Vivint Smart Home Arena.
Here’s some of the top reactions from players and fans:

If Jazz fans hate Gordon Hayward so much, then why does every guy at the game have his haircut??
