'We got a player in @spidadmitchell jazz fans'

It's a summer league mix of Mitchell made by prodigy (I assume). Nice video prodigy!

In DL's last radio interview on 1280 with David James, he compared Donovan Mitchell coming out of college to Russell Westbrook. Westbrook wasn't seen as a PG since UCLA had Darren Collison running the point. Lindsey thinks that Mitchell has similar physical tools to Westbrook and thinks he can work on improving his vertical explosion and 3/4 court sprint speed. He thinks Mitchell has the vision, ball handling and passing skills to play the 1 down the road. Considering how conservative DL normally is in describing his players, I thought that was eye-opening.

The buzz is that the Jazz front office thinks Mitchell will become a real star in the league.

He has good potential. With Hayward having walked for nothing though, the circumstances are right for DL to hype someone more than he normally would. Lot's of season ticket sales on the line.

Not really. Jazz are routinely in the top 3rd of the league for ticket sales. Even during that 4-5 year playoff absence. The stans are not going anywhere because Hayward left.

Booker has expressed more pride about his Jazz tenure while on the Nets than Hayward ever did.

I want Booker back. We messed up Book... come home.

We might have my all time favorite locker room if we brought back Booker.

Nobody would dare open their mouths with Rudy ingles and Booker on the court
