SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Jazz will be well-represented in this year's NBA All-Star game.

Jazz stars Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert were named reserves on the Western Conference team, the league announced Tuesday.

The game is currently scheduled for March 7 in Atlanta. It will be the second straight All-Star appearance for Mitchell and Gobert.

Utah head coach Quin Snyder was previously named the Western Conference coach last week. At 25-6, the Jazz currently hold the best record in the NBA.
