One thing is for certain with all of this, Keyonte George has become the face of the team in so many ways.

If you haven’t seen the video of Hudson from Instagram hyping up the Jazz, here it is in all its glory.

It’s also worth checking the comments to see all the Jazz players commenting. Utah invited Hudson, and his family and Keyonte George welcomed him to the floor.

we had to make it happen 🥹

Hudson may be having the best week any Jazz fan has ever had, including being raised in the air like Young Simba.

ALL HAIL HUDSON 🙌#TakeNotepic.twitter.com/b0hdRH62nW

There could not be an easier group of guys to root for than this young squad.

There were also some rookie traditions that had to be done. The Jazz played a prank on Darryn Peterson, having him run out alone from the tunnel.

sorry, rook 🤣 @Darryn_P1#TakeNotepic.twitter.com/wH2mOefqL2

They also had Peterson sing instead of dance, and it was great. The Jazz have this video on mute, but Shreyas Laddha had us covered with the audio.

incredibly unfortunate this has to be muted 🔇

guess the song by the dance moves 🕺😏#TakeNotepic.twitter.com/f6xfr0k4nI

Perhaps some rookie duties here, but I can confidently say that Darryn Peterson is much, much, much, much better at basketball than singing. pic.twitter.com/NljlNKKJp5

The game was mostly a dunk contest, but it was a lot of fun for fans.
