Game 7 awaits Mitchell and Murray; Game 2 in Celtics-Raptors

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — For Utah and Denver, Game 7 awaits.

For Toronto, so may a Game 7 approach.

The entertaining Western Conference first-round series between Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell and Nuggets guard Jamal Murray — the two leading scorers in the NBA playoffs, averaging a combined 72.7 points per game, a head-to-head show unlike any other in league postseason history — will come to an end Tuesday night, when Denver looks to become the 12th team in NBA history to successfully rally from a 3-1 series deficit.

That game gets preceded by Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals between Boston and Toronto, with the Celtics leading 1-0 there.
