“See you next year.”
Those were Donovan Mitchell’s words to the Oklahoma City Thunder fans heckling him and the Utah Jazz while they exited the court. The Jazz while disappointed snd frustrated by their very public and humiliating collapse in Oklahoma City had already begun looking to Game 6 at home. Donovan wasn’t mincing words. He wasn’t coming back to Oklahoma. Not this season.
That’s the backdrop of tonight’s big Game 6 in Utah. If Utah holds serve at home, they have earned themselves a ticket to the second round and a match with the Houston Rockets.
