Amidst one of the hottest and most efficient shooting streaks of his career, four straight wins for the Jazz and breaking 7,000 career points, it's hard to imagine Donovan Mitchell's past week getting any better.
It just did.
Announced on Monday by the NBA, Mitchell has been named the Western Conference Player of the Week for games from Monday, Nov. 29, through Sunday, Dec. 5. It's the third time in his career that he's won the honor, joining teammate Rudy Gobert as players who has won this season.
Mitchell led the Jazz to a 3-0 record with home victories over Portland, Boston, and Cleveland — all of whom are currently in the NBA playoff picture.
