Ruled out Sunday Mitchell (illness) is out Sunday against the Trail Blazers, Sarah Todd of The Deseret News reports.

Dealing with non-COVID illness Mitchell has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a non-COVID illness, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.
Impact With only one game remaining in the regular season and the Jazz all but locked into either the fifth or sixth seed, it seems likely Utah will be cautious with their superstar guard. This is certainly a concerning development with the playoffs right around the corner, but the Jazz avoided the play-in tournament so Mitchell will have until April 16 to clear the issue.

Impact Utah blew yet another huge fourth-quarter lead, this time getting outscored 36 to 13 in the final period to squander a 17-point advantage.

Over his last three games, Mitchell is a combined 21-of-64 (32.8% FG) from the field.

Struggles from field in OT win Mitchell chipped in 20 points (6-24 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 7-8 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and one steal across 41 minutes during Tuesday's 121-115 overtime victory over the Grizzlies.
Impact While the Jazz were able to pull out the win at home in overtime, it wasn't a banner night for Mitchell, who hit just six of his 24 field goal attempts and struggled mightily from beyond the arc. He's down to 28.3 percent from deep over his last seven games, though dating back to the start of February (26 games), Mitchell is averaging 4.0 made threes per game on 37.9 percent shooting.

Impact Though Mitchell tied Mike Conley for a team-high 26 points Saturday, he finished with an inefficient 8-for-19 shooting line. The star guard did knock down four three-pointers, marking his second straight game with a 4-for-10 effort from beyond the arc. Mitchell is averaging 28.7 points, 5.2 assists, 4.3 boards and 3.9 treys over his past 12 games.
