Like LeBron James, Jazz rookie Donovan Mitchell sent out a tweet this week to congratulate Carmelo Anthony for becoming just the 21st NBA player to reach the 25,000-point mark.
Spida's message was sincere. It was a thoughtful gesture, coming weeks after Anthony told reporters that Utah has something "something special" in the kid from Louisville.
Carmelo Anthony declined to tell exactly what he, Russ and PG said to Donovan Mitchell postgame, but said of Mitchell, “The Utah organization and the fans have something special they can look forward to...I think you guys are watching something here that could be very special.
