Predictions for Mitchell's Progress for Next Season

25/5/5

Will shoot 45/36/85 split will get to the line 6 times a game.

All star... all nba team... signature shoe. I will buy all the spida merch adidas so take note.

It’d be like the star of the varsity team playing with the 7th graders in a preseason tournament to get some more reps... DM made like 4-5 years of progress in one season. Lock him in a gym with Johnny Bryant and send him to P3 a couple times... let him do the skill work he needs.

Lock Exum in with them and tell Exum to do everything Mitchell does.

I'm still salty about his hamstring... dude was playing so well... didn't look scared... was showing real emotion... hamstring quits!

He's had some absolutely horrendous luck. I wonder if he offended the churro somehow.
 
Would be really surprised if he averages under 25, IMO.

The 20 ppg number is misleading, since it includes October and November. He averaged 23 in December, 22 in Jan, 23 in March, 22 in April, and 24 for the postseason.

Call him a 23(ish) PPG player right now. My hope is he figures out to get to the line 5-6 times per night (up from 4), and increase his above the break/off the dribble three point shooting percentage to get his total 3P% up to 37-38% (and consequently take more total 3P shots). Those alone along with some additional developments could put him at 26-27 PPG, but I'm not sure he pushes it quite that high.

I'll caveat this by saying that my hope is that we add a few pieces in the offseason so that we have a baller squad next year, decreasing his usage rate slightly and leading to some DNPs in the 4th quarter when we're up huge. But we'll see.

I'll put my final guess at 25.
 
No way SL -- that would be foolish. For what reason? He's going for at least 27 ppg next year. If he improves his consistency on his outside shot, he could easily hit 30 ppg.
