BROOKLYN, N.Y. — When it matters most, the best take over.
Donovan Mitchell has seen Kyrie Irving do it plenty of times.
On Tuesday night, it was Mitchell who flipped a switch in crunch time. The Utah Jazz guard scored 14 points in the fourth quarter (hitting five of his last six shots) to help his team beat Irving and the Brooklyn Nets, 118-107.
After the game, the two star guards shared their respect for each other and swapped jerseys on the court.
“There are a lot of things you can take from him,” Mitchell said of Irving.
