The Donovan Mitchell Hype Thread! (repository of highlights and effusive praise)

It sure looks to me like he's going to be a scorer in the league, like Lillard and McCollum. He has too many weapons not to. He's explosive enough to drive by most guys, and he can create space with a pull-up on a dime, or with a step back/side step. He's got a sweet combination of shooting touch, strength, explosiveness and a bit of shiftiness. If he becomes a guy who can create for others with the ball in his hands, he's a complete player.
 
I try to keep expectations in check, but the guy is making it impossible not to have high hopes.

We're getting excited about offense from a player we've long considered a potential defensive star.

I know the draft was incredibly strong, but what are the odds we look back and say Donovan was one of the top two or three?

Top 5 or 6 probably, along with Ball, Smith Jr., Jackson and Fultz.

It will be a very interesting draft to look back on in 4 years. The entire 1st round was unusually strong.
 
Question is what level of great will his defense be if he's a perennial defensive player of the year candidate, then I say he's top three easy.
