Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert shut down Jazz fan angry about 'Black Lives Matter' on courts

Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert may not have the best relationship since Gobert’s irresponsible COVID-19 behavior and Mitchell’s positive test, but when it comes to shutting down childish whiners and possible racists, they’re perfectly in sync.

Mitchell and Gobert teamed up on Twitter on Tuesday night to dunk on a Utah Jazz fan who threatened to quit his fandom over the NBA’s visual support of Black Lives Matter. It was reported on Monday that the NBA would be painting “Black Lives Matter” on the sidelines of all three courts it’s using for the restart at Walt Disney World, and Twitter user “ThorOdinson543” was not happy about it.
