Donovan Mitchell Drops 21 Points
7 years agoUtah Jazz shooting guard Donovan Mitchell had a decent scoring game despite his team getting blown out by the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night. Mitchell scored 21 points, which included four three-pointers, and he added three rebounds and one steal. While the scoring was nice, Mitchell wasn't particularly efficient, making just eight of 20 shot attempts. This continues a troubling trend for Mitchell, whose field goal percentage has taken a nosedive recently. In his last eight games, Mitchell is shooting just 41 percent from the field. As a result, owners should monitor Mitchell's shooting down the stretch, as he may be hitting the infamous rookie wall. Mitchell will get a chance to end his shooting slump against the Dallas Mavericks and their 20th-ranked defense.
