It seems silly, but for me, the number one takeaway of this game is this: the Jazz dodged bullets on Saturday night like Neo in The Matrix. Several times, the Jazz’s players picked up knocks that it seemed could have impacted their upcoming schedule
The biggest injury was Donovan Mitchell’s, who went down after a drive and didn’t put any weight on his leg as he left the court. At first, there was a lot of confusion, and the first few camera angles on the replay didn’t show a twist of the ankle, maybe pointing towards a more dangerous Achilles injury.
