Jazz and Donovan Mitchell to host Celtics At Vivint Smart Home Arena. The Celtics are coming off a 118-106 home win over the Portland Trail-Blazers. Jayson Tatum was on point last game, providing 36 points (14-of-22 shooting), 5 rebounds and 2 blocks.
The Jazz will want to move on from an 111-131 loss at home to the Phoenix Suns, a game in which Donovan Mitchell was solid with 38 points (11-of-19 from the field), 4 assists and 2 steals. Rudy Gobert was solid with 13 points (3-of-5 from the field) and 8 rebounds.
Will Donovan Mitchell replicate his 38 point performance in the last game’s loss to the Suns? This will be the first meeting between the teams this season. The Jazz’s last 5 games haven’t been too promising, having won only 2 of them. Both are expected to be mostly healthy.
