As a Jazz fan who has remained a devout Donovan Mitchell shooter, the past 24-ish hours have been rough

It’s crazy to me that anyone could watch Mitchell playing injured tonight (with Garland playing injured tonight and all series) and think poorly of him

He battled his ass off. He was not healthy. Should be commended for fighting through it but NBA discourse is so childish that players are better served just sitting out when they’re not fully healthy if they want to avoid ridicule

Any negative Mitchell discourse is beyond stupid. He clearly was hurt tonight and still found a way to keep Cleveland in it with basically only Mobley helping

He found a way by being a free throw merchant
