Donovan Mitchell enjoyed another explosive offensive night
to help the Utah Jazz roll to a 126-110 win over the Memphis Grizzlies on
Saturday night at Vivint Arena in Salt Lake City, as the teams wrapped up
their back-to-back mini-series.

Mitchell posted 35 points and seven assists while
Jordan Clarkson scored 28 points, six rebounds and four
assists off the bench. Rudy Gobert notched a double-double
with 16 points and 14 rebounds.

Jonas Valanciunas had 13 points and 11 rebounds for his
30th double-double of the season, and Grayson Allen had a
career-high four steals.

Mitchell picked up where he left off Friday night with 16 first quarter
points as the Jazz offense overpowered the Grizzlies to establish a 39-19
after 12 minutes.

The Grizzlies whittled the deficit down to nine in the second quarter until
Mitchell returned to the floor and worked with Clarkson to take a 70-53 lead
into the locker room. Mitchell piled up 28 points and five assists in the
half while Clarkson went 8-for-11 for 20 points.

The second half was all Utah as the Jazz had success fending off a Grizzlies
comeback similar to Friday night. The Jazz shot 42 percent from the
three-point line while the Grizzlies were just 40 percent from the field.

The Grizzlies dropped to 21-22 with the loss.
