Tall about your teammate having your back.
The Utah Jazz lost to the Houston Rockets in a close one last night by a score of 104-101. The stories that dominated the game? James Harden completely laying an egg going 3-20 from the field, but still scoring 22 points. The other story? Donovan Mitchell missing the potential game tying 3 in the last seconds of the game.
You could see after he missed the shot, Mitchell looked so frustrated and I couldn’t help but feel a little sorry for him.
Kyle Korver maybe sensed that as well and called the media back to give a lifting message for the young player out of Louisville.
This says a lot about Kyle as a teammate and says how much they all care and respect Donovan Mitchell in that locker room. What a great thing for Kyle to do and I hope it inspires others to lift up their teammates when things aren;t going their way.
