Donovan Mitchell has another chance to beat Ben Simmons.
This time though, other athletes are involved. Alvin Kamare and tennis star Sloane Stephens are the finalists, along with Simmons and Mitchell, for the ESPYS Best Breakthrough Athlete Award.
The award is given annually to the “sportsperson adjudged to have made the greatest breakthrough in a major international individual sport or North American professional team sport. The award is typically given to a sportsperson in his or her rookie season at a given level but may be won by any athlete who in a given year improves his or her performance dramatically or otherwise becomes well-recognized.
