A huge part of the Jazz fanbase has been pushing for Mitchell to get traded. Mitchell has decent statistics this season. He is averaging 25.5 points, 4 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game. However, his behind the arc shooting has been the lowest of his career at 33.9%.

A lot of fans have backed Rudy Gobert in this passive-aggressive fight. Gobert is the main defensive anchor of the team and has stepped up offensively this season. He takes his role seriously and has been consistently grabbing rebounds and scoring baskets.

Moreover, fans are speculating that the relationship between both the superstars is tense because of comments made by Gobert earlier. Gobert had claimed that the Utah guards are not good at defense and need to step it up.

A lot of fans have been speculating on potential trades. There are a lot of tweets saying Donovan Mitchell would make a good fit on teams like Boston Celtics, New York Knicks, and the Miami Heat.

Fans have also asked Gobert to pull off a ‘Ben Simmons’ and stop playing for the franchise. These comments are coming up because Gobert has been playing really well this season. Fans believe that Gobert does not deserve this hate from Mitchell. Gobert is leading the league in rebounds per game and is scoring the most points per game of his career.

Everyone likes to see pro-athletes engaging in drama. However, a ton of fans are now fed up with this tussle between Mitchell and Gobert. They feel it has been going on for too long and needs to end for the future of the franchise.

A lot of fans have also posted memes on how this will lead to Jazz’s eventual demise.

The common opinion is that Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell need to get the personal issues out of the way if they want to win.
