The Utah Jazz are the talk of the NBA, and not in a good way. After dropping back-to-back games against the Dallas Mavericks sans Luka Doncic, Utah is desperate for any hope. They’ve underperformed multiple years and have had significant locker room turmoil. This year has always felt like a potential turning point, and currently, it looks like their turning in an unfavorable direction.
After game 3, Donovan Mitchell said, “We have to win on Saturday. It’s that simple. We can’t drop both of these games at home. So, we have to win.” Only time will tell if the effort on the court will match the statements made postgame.
