Donovan Mitchell praises Utah Jazz fans, vows team improvement in The Players' Tribune piece

Scott G Winterton, Deseret News

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (45) talks to the media as the Utah Jazz practice at the Toyota Center for game two of the NBA playoffs in Houston on Tuesday, May 1, 2018.

Both of the Utah Jazz's new franchise cornerstones have now written for The Players' Tribune.

After Rudy Gobert did so during the Jazz's first-round playoff series victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder, Donovan Mitchell followed suit with a piece that was published on Tuesday morning.

Mitchell spent much of the piece praising the team's fans, particularly those who greeted the squad at the airport after it was eliminated in the second round by the Houston Rockets, and also wrote about his team's mentality and goals for the future.
