DENVER — Fresh off a 32-point performance against the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night at Vivint Arena, Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell had no time to rest before hitting the hardwood again the next day in Denver’s Pepsi Center.
After a slow start, Mitchell caught fire scoring 9 of his 24 points in the fourth quarter — including three clutch baskets in the final two minutes — to help the Jazz secure their third consecutive victory against the Nuggets on Thursday.
As Mitchell was lighting it up in the Mile High City on TNT, his favorite rapper Dave East was more than 2,000 miles away working privately in Miami.
