Was Donovan Mitchell’s early sophomore slump the result of an injured toe?

Perhaps I owe George Hill an apology. Remember how he hurt his toe and sat out for what seemed like forever?

Sure, he didn’t want to stay here, and sure, he probably could have tried a little harder, but still: apparently toe injuries are more serious than they sound. Check this out from Tony Jones:

This Trey Toupee fellow noticed some of the same things I did. Why did Donovan go for so many easy layups when he could have had dunks? Why did he shoot seemingly careless jumpers from distance when he had an open lane to the basket?
