In the 2020-2021 NBA season, the Utah Jazz, led by likely future hall-of-famers Rudy Gobert and Donavon Mitchell, had the best regular season record in the NBA. The Jazz also had by far the best point differential at plus 9.2, 3.4 higher than second place. Come playoff time, Utah made quick work of the rising Memphis Grizzlies, beating them in 5 games. In round 2, the Jazz got out to a 2-game lead against the star-studded Los Angeles Clippers, largely due to the heroics of Donavon Mitchell.
