The evolution of Donovan Mitchell as a passer

Throughout the Quin Snyder era, the Utah Jazz have made passing a stylistic trademark. “Pinging” the ball around the court and getting the defense in “the blender” are some of the Jazz core beliefs offensively.

This season, Utah’s passing is electrifying the NBA, particularly over the past couple games.

On national television last week, Donovan Mitchell slung a half-court pass for a Bojan Bogdanovic 3 in the final minutes of their win against Boston. Over the weekend, Bojan’s leaping, behind-the-back pass to Donovan preemented a one-handed, cross-court pass for a Joe Ingles 3 in the first half against the Bucks.
