Uduka: Mitchell is one of the best scorers. Double-teaming him&& allowing him to score 21 points is acceptable.

November 20th NBA regular season news, the Rockets defeated the Cavaliers 114-104 in an away game and won five consecutive games.

After the game, Rockets coach Uduka accepted an interview with reporters. Talking about choosing to double-team Mitchell in this game, he said: "He is obviously one of the best scorers in the league. The reason why we defended him like this tonight is to let other (Cavaliers) players stand up and prove themselves. Whether it is a player I have coached or a player I respect, such as Mitchell or other opponents, you can see the clues from their defense. Sometimes this strategy is worth it. Let other ball. It is indeed a risk to prove himself as a player, but if we can limit his scoring to 21 points in one game, and he averaged 30 points per game this season and has multiple high-scoring performances, then we are willing to accept this result."

In this campaign, Mitchell played 33 minutes and 52 seconds, making 8 of 17 shots (3 of 9 three-pointers), 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 21 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals.
