After three games in which Donovan Mitchell pressed on the offensive end, playing inefficiently, he turned it around in a big way against the Houston Rockets with a brilliant 38-point, 7-assist performance that showed off the best of his skillset.
Remember how much the Jazz were stifled by the switching defense of Houston in the playoffs? Tonight, Donovan Mitchell took advantage repeatedly by getting mismatches he wanted and then simply driving past the perimeter defender. From there, he either finished around the help that came, or made the right pass to the open man.
