DAVION MITCHELL (TOR)
UNDERDOG
NBA ROLE: SKILLED, LOCKDOWN COMBO GUARD
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; 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; traded to Raps (2024): Davion’s a “defensive dynamo” - culture setter who’s open to the challenge of winning in Toronto
