The Denver Nuggets had one of their most underwhelming performances of their year after getting blown out by the Utah Jazz in Game 2.

With Mike Conley continuing to  be out, it’s embarrassing how the Utah Jazz had such an explosive offensive game against the Denver Nuggets. Jazz star Donovan Mitchell, who scored 57 points in Game 1, put up 30 points in Game 2. Meanwhile, sixth man Jordan Clarkson scored 26 points after scoring 18 points in Game 1.
