Every season, Donovan Mitchell ups the ante. And this year was no different.
The former Louisville Cardinal proved Utah’s offensive leader, averaging a career-high 26.4 points per game on career-best shooting (52.0% effective field goal percentage and 38.6% from three). In March against Boston, Mitchell scored his 6,000th point in a Jazz uniform. He became the fastest to reach 6k in franchise history (262 games).
After making his second straight All-Star appearance in Atlanta, Spida upped the scoring punch even further. In 19 games, he averaged 29.6 points - only second to Steph Curry. He dropped 42 against both the Kings and Wizards.
