Donovan Mitchell leads Jazz with 24 points, season-high 8 assists
Utah Jazz shooting guard Donovan Mitchell scored 24 points (10-of-23 field goals, 3-of-6 free throws) with 5 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal, 1 3-pointer, and 4 turnovers in 35.4 minutes of 106-104 win over the Philadelphia 76ers.
What It Means:
The assists set a season-high. Mitchell has scored at least 24 points in seven-of-eight games while shooting a career-best 50.7 percent from the field. He shot below 44.0 percent in his first two seasons, so expect some regression to the mean. The Jazz will host the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday.
D-Mitch scored 41.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday. numberFire's models project him for 24.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 1.5 steals, and 2.6 triples per contest over the rest of the season.
