The Utah Jazz blew a 25-point lead and an opportunity to advance to the second round of the playoffs on Wednesday night, losing to the Thunder 107-99 at Chesapeake Energy Arena.
As star rookie Donovan Mitchell walked off the court, he let some excited fans know that the Jazz will see them again…next year:
A buddy sent me this.

Holding a 3-2 advantage in the series, Utah can close it out with a victory at home on Friday.
If they fail to do so, they’ll be back in OKC for Game 7.
