It's official — Sunday night in Madison Square Garden clearly meant something extra to Donovan Mitchell.
Returning home for the first time this season, Mitchell was sensational in every facet of the game as Utah began its six-game road trip with a 108-93 victory over the New York Knicks. With the win, the Jazz have a two-game lead over Dallas for the No. 4 spot in the Western Conference playoffs — and are just two games back of the struggling Golden State Warriors for the No. 3 seed.
"It's a lot of fun. … I got a lot of friends and family here who get to watch me, who know me more of a baseball player than a basketball one," Mitchell said postgame.
