While defending a “drive” from Russell Westbrook at the end of the second quarter of the last Lakers – Jazz, Donovan Mitchell took the elbow of the leader of Los Angeles in the face, launched at full speed.
Sounded at the time, “Spida” even finished the match, lost by the Jazz. It was only afterwards that the full-back felt dizzy, so his club decided to place him on concussion protocol according to ESPN.
The player will miss at least the next meeting of the Jazz, next night against Houston.
This is the play where Donovan Mitchell was hurt last night, leading to him being in the concussion protocol and out for the Jazz’s game against the Rockets tomorrow. pic.twitter.com/Eb2Fd3niyi
