Jazz's Donovan Mitchell shakes off foot injury to start vs. Thunder

The Utah Jazz tweeted Wednesday night that rookie guard Donovan Mitchell will play and start against the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 2 of the team's first-round playoff series.

Mitchell, Utah's leading scorer, had been considered questionable for the game with a bruised foot.

After going through pregame warm-ups, Mitchell was deemed healthy enough to play.

The Rookie of the Year candidate had 27 points and 10 rebounds in the Jazz's Game 1 loss.
