NBA 2K has been releasing player ratings and Donovan Mitchell’s has now been released (check out yesterday’s downbeat for more on that). Mitchell himself seemed more concerned with a particular rating that he got seriously shortchanged on last year.
Though Mitchell saw his overall ranking go from 75 at the start of the season to an 84 by the end, his dunk rating at one point was 50. For a guy who won the dunk contest, it was unacceptable.
Apparently, that glitch has now been fixed.

Mitchell seemed cool with his rating, but his old ROY foe Ben Simmons didn’t appear pleased with his rating, which also came in at 87, same as Mitchell and Boston’s Jayson Tatum.
