Mitchell lifts Jazz past Thunder 102-95 to even series
OKLAHOMA CITY — It wasn’t even clear until an hour before the game if Utah rookie Donovan Mitchell was going to play in Game 2 against Oklahoma City.
The Thunder probably wish he hadn’t.
Mitchell, who played with a bruised left foot, scored 13 of his 28 points in the fourth quarter to help the Jazz defeat Oklahoma City 102-95 and tie their Western Conference playoff series at one win apiece.
“I think if he was feeling something, he didn’t show it and he played through it,” Jazz coach Quin Snyder said.
