Nicknamed “Off-Night,” Davion Mitchell never gives his man any sort of break on the defensive end; bulldog defender (all bark & bite) w/ nice skill on both sides - Mitchell mixes it up, gets under opponents’ skin by staying attached and locked in at all times; nice pull-up shooter w/ a go-to step back - creates insane separation, crosses over and gets lined up with the rim on nearly every attempt; quick off the dribble; budding backcourt duo w/ De’Aaron Fox, Mitchell’s his defensive complement, learned to play very effectively off-ball in college; impressive passer on the move (better than initially expected), can hit bigs over the top or find a shot after penetrating in; good finisher at the rim, though needs to focus on efficiency when trying to score amongst a crowd; “defensive dynamo” in Sacramento - Davion’s a culture setter who’s open to the challenge of winning in Sacramento
