LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — Donovan Mitchell was one of the bright stars of the playoffs, further illustrating that he’s a special, selfless figure even in defeat.
The Utah Jazz’s young star put forth an effort for the ages during the postseason restart by joining Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray in making NBA history by being the only two players to score at least 50 points twice in the same series.
But there was a period before the restart when Mitchell was hesitant about committing to the Orlando bubble because of his contract situation.
