Chicago, here they come.
Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell and center Rudy Gobert have been selected as reserves for the 2020 NBA All-Star Game next month in the Second City. It will be the first All-Star appearance for the former Slam Dunk Champ and the reigning Defensive Player of the Year, and the first time the Jazz have had multiple representatives in the game since Carlos Boozer and Mehmet Okur were selected for the showcase in 2007.
Mitchell and Gobert were voted All-Star reserves by the league’s coaches after leading the Jazz to a 32-15 record, fourth-best in the Western Conference.
