Jazz vs. Clippers: Donovan Mitchell eviscerates L.A. in every way imaginable as playoff dominance continues

Mitchell has been the superstar the Jazz need him to be to win the title

The Los Angeles Clippers have to be defiantly throwing their hands up in disbelief at this point. First, they got seven full games of a nearly unstoppable Luka Doncic, and now, in the second round of the Western Conference playoffs, they're being dissected and demoralized by Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell, who has cemented his superstar status with his early postseason performances. Mitchell scored 37 points on 15-for-29 shooting, including 6-for-12 from 3-point range in a 117-112 Game 2 win over the Clippers on Thursday to give the Jazz a 2-0 series lead. He's now averaging 41 points on 53/44/80 splits against the Clippers, and has more points scored than minutes played in six games this postseason. The most devastating part about the way Mitchell handled his business on Thursday was that the Clippers did their job. With any superstar player, you mix up your looks, alternate primary defenders and live with the results. The problem is, the results for Mitchell have been overwhelmingly in Utah's favor. Here's a quick look at all the ways that Mitchell capitalized on various Clippers defenses throughout the night.
