Recap: Jokic no-shows and the Nuggets drop another one in Utah, 118-108

Donovan Mitchell put up a career-high-tying 46 points, Rudy Gobert had a 20-10 double-double and was a dominant force in the paint, and Derrick Favors contributed 16 and 7 as the Utah Jazz did what they usually do in Utah against the Nuggets: win, this time by the score of 118-108. Nikola Jokic might as well not have suited up for this one, having perhaps his worst game as a pro and fouling out in 16 minutes. Paul Millsap was barely better, and Will Barton was held scoreless as the Nuggets had no answer to Utah’s energy and effort down the stretch.
