Despite X-rays coming back negative on Donovan Mitchell’s ankle sprain suffered Friday against the Pacers, he will miss significant time due to the injury. Utah will re-evaluate the severity of the injury to see how Mitchell is doing in a week. Mitchell looked to be in severe pain after landing awkwardly in Utah’s win over Indiana yesterday and was helped back to the locker room for evaluation.
It’s not only a huge blow to Utah’s championship hopes as they sit at +750 to win it all in the FanDuel Sportsbook’s futures market but to fantasy owners.
