Following the sudden resignation of Quin Snyder as the coach of the Jazz on Sunday afternoon, Utah star guard Donovan Mitchell is described to be “unsettled, unnerved and wondering what it means for the franchise’s future,” according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
Mitchell, who has spent the entirety of his five-year career with the Jazz, was left “surprised and disappointed,” by Snyder’s departure, according to Wojnarowski. The No. 13 pick in the 2017 draft reportedly considered the franchise’s coach a significant reason for agreeing to a five-year maximum contract extension in 2020.
Mitchell doesn’t harbor any ill will toward Snyder and has accepted his reasons for stepping down, per Wojnarowski. However, he is “still trying to process what the coach’s loss means in the larger scope for the organization and himself.”
