Enter “Waiters Donovan Mitchell” or “Monta Donovan Mitchell” into Twitter’s search bar and you’ll find plenty who want to diminish what Mitchell has been to this point in his career (to be fair, some of the tweets are clearly jokes). What the detractors who wish to brand Mitchell a “chucker” ignore is that Mitchell is doing this as the undeniable No. Over the course of his career, Mitchell has averaged 24.5 points, 4.4 assists and 4.3 rebounds per 75 possessions. Among the 62 players averaging 20-plus points per 75 possessions over the course of Mitchell’s career, he’s 43rd in free-throw rate.
