Los Angeles Lakers 81-96 Utah Jazz

Donovan Mitchell emerged as a winning surprise factor that led the Utah Jazz attack in the 96-81 game against the devalued Los Angeles Lakers.

Mitchel as a reserve contributed 22 points and was in charge of leading the balanced attack of the Jazz, who also had the support of Spanish base Ricky Rubio, who confirmed his status as leader in the direction of the game and also in the offense of the Jazz to add 21 points. With their triumph the Jazz (3-3) remain perfect in matches celebrated in their field the "Vivint Smart Home Arena", with mark of 3-0. Rubio played 33 minutes, which he used to score 6 of 13 field shots, including 4 of 7 3-pointers, 5-of-6 from the lineup, got seven rebounds, including four defenses, delivered four assists, recovered a ball and lost five, being again his weakness in all the party. Rubio also won the individual duel to rookie base Lonzo Ball of the Lakers, who each day falls more in their individual performance, nor was it a winning factor for their team.

Ball himself at the end of the game acknowledged that two of his actions were what prevented the reaction of the Lakers and the possibility of having fought for the victory."I'm aware that I have a lot of different aspects of the game," said Ball, who finished with nine points after scoring 3 of 10 field goals, four assists and two rebounds.

Derrick Favors scored double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds for the Utah team. The Lakers (2-4) had only two players who achieved double-digit numbers and scored 1-1 at home matches. Brandon Ingram scored 16 points and Jordan Clarkson reached 15.
