Utah Jazz: 5 most memorable moments prior to hiatus
Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell’s All-Star debut
How satisfying was it for Utah Jazz fans to see their star duo get the recognition that they deserve? Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell were voted in as All-Star reserves, and they were both incredibly deserving.
At the end of the day, All-Star games really aren’t that big of a deal. However, I like to see my guys in the spotlight and like to see them rewarded for their hard work.
Gobert put on a show in his first All-Star game, finishing with 21 points and 11 rebounds. He didn’t close the game, which disappointed many fans, but he got to showcase his talents to the world and did a darn good job. He looked like he belonged with the best the NBA has to offer, that’s for sure.
Mitchell didn’t preform nearly as good as Gobert, scoring seven points to go with five rebounds and four assists. Still, it’s a tremendous honor for the third-year guard out of Louisville. I’ve got a feeling that he’ll earn quite a few All-Star appearances in the future.
It’s really a shame to see where they are at now with their relationship, but looking back, Gobert and Mitchell looked so happy out there in the All-Star game. Good times, man.
Utah Jazz fans fell in love with Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell. Watching them work hard every night and get rewarded was a joyful experience.
So, those are fives moments that stood out to me from the 2019-20 season. We can only hope that the NBA gets back underway at some point. It feels like forever since I’ve watched Utah Jazz basketball live.
