Mitchell led Utah with 11 points and canned the first 3-pointer he shot. Unfortunately he missed his next six 3-point attempts. Even though Mitchell could not can his outside shots, he was very effective driving the basket.
Mitchell dished out 4 assists in the first 3 quarters and also grabbed 8 rebounds. Mike Conley posted 9 points and 3 rebounds on 3-of-15 shooting from the field in his emotional return to Memphis in his first game against his former team.
Rudy Gobert continued his strong play with a double-double entering the fourth quarter, 12 points and 12 blocks along with three blocks. The Jazz were struggling from the three-point line, knocking down just seven of their 29 attempts from beyond the arc.
