Just a few hours before the Utah Jazz took on the Dallas Mavericks the Jazz announced Donovan Mitchell would be out for the game. As the game went on one by one the starters and bench were removed to let developing young players have a chance to develop and show their talent against high level competition. It ended up being a Jazz loss on the box score, but the Jazz are probably happy with the outcome for multiple reasons.
With today’s loss the Jazz are one step farther from facing the Rockets.
