On March 21, Beijing time, in an NBA regular season game that ended earlier today, the Utah Jazz beat the New York Knicks 108-93 away.
In this game, Jazz star Donovan Mitchell played well. He played 36 minutes, shooting 11-of-21 from the field, including 7-of-12 from three-point range, and recorded 36 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 steal. It is worth mentioning that Mitchell has shot in the last two games with a fiery hand. He played a total of 65 minutes, scored 73 points, and shot 16 three-pointers.
So far in the regular season this season, Mitchell's performance has been remarkable. He averaged 33.6 minutes per game and had 25.9 points, 4.2 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.2 blocks. Shooting 45.2 percent from the field and 36.3 percent from three-point range, he ranked first in the team in terms of points, assists and steals.
At the same time, the Jazz were able to win this game because of the wonderful performance of team guard Jordan Clarkson. He played 39 minutes and shot 10-of-18 from the field, including 1-of-5 from three-point range, and recorded 23 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal. Clarkson has shot well in his last three games, and he has scored 20+ points in three consecutive games. Although his shooting feel is not so stable, he often plays a ghostly performance. But as the team's super sixth man, when he finds the feeling of playing, it will bring great help to the team.
After winning today's game, the Jazz's current record has come to 45-26 and ranks fourth in the West. While they're just two wins from the warriors in third place in the West, they're also just two wins ahead of the fifth-place Lone Rangers in the West. Therefore, in the next schedule, the Jazz still can't take it lightly.
