Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (ankle) is expected to be a game-time decision for Game 6 against the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday, reports Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
Mitchell's right ankle injury likely contributed to him shooting below 35.0 percent in each of the past two games. He scored a playoff-low 21 points in Wednesday's surprising Game 5 loss and said afterward that the injury is "just something I'm going to have to deal with." Mike Conley (hamstring) is "working toward a return to the lineup," per Woj, so Mitchell could have somewhat of a reduced workload. The Jazz trail the Clippers, 3-2, in the Western Conference Semifinal series.
numberFire's models expect Mitchell to score 44.3 FanDuel points over 37.5 minutes on Friday and he has a $9,400 on tonight's two-game slate. He averaged 49.3 FanDuel points in Games 1-4 before producing a postseason-low 35.5 FanDuel points in Game 5.
