Donovan Mitchell (hamstring) expects to be fine for Jazz Game 6
Utah Jazz shooting guard Donovan Mitchell (hamstring) said he will "be fine" for Thursday's Game 6 against the Dallas Mavericks.
Mitchell exited Monday's Game 5 loss with a left hamstring injury and he is scheduled to be re-evaluated on Tuesday. The fifth-year guard admitted that he expects to be in pain over the next couple of days, but Mitchell indicated that he will tough it out on Thursday for a win-or-go home Game 6. Jordan Clarkson, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, and Danuel House will likely take on larger roles if Mitchell winds up being ruled out.
numberFire's models currently project Mitchell for 27.9 minutes and 32.3 FanDuel points on Tuesday. Mitchell is averaging 1.03 FanDuel points per minute in the series through five games.
