“It just felt like a regular Jazz game. The support and love you get is unmatched. I was appreciative. It could have went one of two ways. We all know that. It went the right way,' Mitchell said postgame.
But then his video-game-playing buddy Jordan Clarkson -- the first Utah player who greeted Mitchell as he strolled onto the court for pregame warmups -- spoiled Mitchell’s return, igniting a comeback and fueling a 13-0 Jazz run with a miraculous seven-point possession that included two costly personal fouls on Caris LeVert, including a flagrant.
As Mitchell finally bolted toward the locker room, he tapped his chest a couple times and received another boisterous roar from the crowd. It was just like old times -- only he was headed to the opposite tunnel, into a locker room he had never once been in before Tuesday night.Earlier this season, Mitchell appeared at Madison Square Garden for the first time following a near-deal that could’ve made him a Knick.
“I hope it’s the same as it was tonight,” Mitchell said when asked what he wants his relationship to be with Jazz fans moving forward. “The same as it’s always been.” “I’m gonna continue to speak for people that you guys don’t put a camera in front of because they don’t have that voice, they’re not able to speak on it. That’s always been my intention and that’s always going to be my intention,” Mitchell said. “We were given such a platform and a pedestal to speak on these things and I try to do that as much as I can.
