Donovan Mitchell is back for Utah -- Rudy Gobert isn't -- and James Harden is out for the Nets. Enough said. Although, the way Harden played Wednesday in a loss to the Kings, Brooklyn might be better off.

The Jazz remain without Rudy Gobert (calf), but will get a big boost with Donovan Mitchell (concussion) returning from an eight-game absence. That should make things tough for the Nets, who have lost six straight games. All of those losses came by at least four points, while four them were by at least nine points. Look for Mitchell’s return to help extend the Nets’ recent struggles.
