He only really played 3. He missed an entire year to a broken foot.
Locke thinks there is a CHANCE Mitchell scores 15 points per game.

If you listen to the whole podcast he commits to the prediction Mitchell will average 15 for the season. At one point he tells Danny explicitly it's gonna happen.

I stand corrected, thanks! He also waffled when pressed, saying he wouldn't take the bet in Vegas and not sure if he meant for full season versus end of season. Then he circled back and committed, but in a joking way.
But your broader point that he is very high on Mitchell is spot on.

When you say in a joking way, I think that's a poor way of characterizing it. But ok.

I've been thinking about this, and I'd actually take that bet. Dante will become a respectable 3 point threat within the next 2-3 years.
250+ 3s in a season. 35%+. He has 3 years to do it. 3 months signature or avatar bet. Deal?

three 3 point shots a game? that's doable especially if he's league average or above and he's getting mins.
3 a game for 82 games would be 246. I just don't see him taking 3 a game and playing all 82 games is always rare.
