The first game of Donovan Mitchell’s third run in the NBA Playoffs proved to be a historic one for the former Cardinal.
Mitchell dropped a career-high 57 points on 19-of-33 shooting, setting a Utah Jazz franchise record for most points in a playoff game in the process. The 57 points were actually the third-most in NBA Playoffs history, slotting Mitchell behind only Michael Jordan and Elgin Baylor.
