Utah Jazz lose tough one to Mitchell-less Cleveland Cavaliers

The Utah Jazz took on the Cleveland Cavaliers minus Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, and Evan Mobley and lost 124-116.

It’s a bad loss, any way you look at it, just proving the Jazz have been a terrible road team this year, and, if we’re being honest, a bad team overall. With all of their veteran players healthy, the Jazz were unable to sustain any sort of defensive stretches. In the first half, Lauri Markkanen was getting worked by Jarrett Allen. Throughout the entire game the entire Jazz backcourt got cooked by Utah State’s own Sam Merrill, who went for a career-high 27 points on 8/14 from three!
