John Houston Stockton (born March 26, 1962) is a retired American professional basketball player (NBA) who spent his entire career (1984–2003) as a point guard for the Utah Jazz of the NBA.

He then played college basketball for Gonzaga University in his hometown where he averaged 20.9 points per game while shooting 57% from the field in his senior year. His grandfather, Hust Stockton had also been a well known athlete at Gonzaga. Hust was a member of the Frankford Yellow Jackets, winners of the National Football League championship in 1926.
