I personally thought the Houston Rockets would sweep the Utah Jazz. I was wrong and one of the main reasons is the strong play of rookie guard Donovan Mitchell. With Ricky Rubio out with a hamstring injury the rookie has been pressed to play point guard and has held it down during this transition. He had 17 points, 11 assists, five rebounds and two steals in a 116-108 win on the road.
Not only did they win, but he had a super nasty tip dunk on his own miss in the fourth quarter check it out. SICK!!!!! Sorry Clint Capela, Trevor Ariza and (sorta) P.J. Tucker!
