Preview: Nuggets host Donovan Mitchell and the Utah Jazz in playoff rematch

The Denver Nuggets are back in action tonight as they host Donovan Mitchell and the Utah Jazz for the first time this season. The Jazz are no strangers - Denver swept the regular season series last year before ultimately defeating Utah in Game 7 of the first round, overcoming a 3-1 deficit in probably the most memorable playoff series of last year.

Utah is riding a four-game win streak and appears to be in midseason form with Mitchell leading the offense and center Rudy Gobert anchoring the defense. Sharpshooter Bojan Bogdanovic is back in the lineup after missing the bubble and Derrick Favors is back in the picture after returning to Utah in free agency.
