Davion Mintz took a different approach during his second go-around with the NBA Draft process.
Following his 2018-19 junior season at Creighton, Mintz elected to put his name into the NBA Draft but left open the possibility of a return. During that process, he was doing everything he could to reach his goal of playing in the world’s top professional league. However, he ultimately didn’t receive the feedback he wanted and decided to come back to Creighton where he would eventually transfer to Kentucky for the 2020-21 season.
Before deciding if he wanted to tackle a sixth college season and a second with the Wildcats heading into 2021-22, Mintz tried his hand in the NBA Draft process again, but with a different approach: He was more methodical with the way he went about it.
