The Utah Jazz held a 2-1 advantage in NBA All-Stars as they battled the Portland Trail Blazers in the Moda Center on Saturday night. Utah sent Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert to pummel Portland’s beleaguered roster, trying to pull the high-flying Blazers back to earth. It hardly mattered when Portland’s single All-Star, Damian Lillard, might as well be named to the All-Time, All-Universe team. Mitchell and Gobert combined for 31 points, 13 rebounds, and 6 assists in the game. That’s not bad, except Lillard posted 51 with 12 dimes all by himself, driving his team to a 124-107 victory.
