Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell selected by Giannis in 2020 All-Star Game draft

The All-Star game will be a classic game of offense vs defense. In the first game that features the Elam Ending active NBA players, Giannis Antetokounmpo selected Rudy Gobert with the 13th pick just after Bam Adebayo (we can discuss that snub for a later date). Donovan Mitchell was selected 21st (out of 22nd) by Giannis as well. Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell may have slid in the All-Star draft due to *checks notes* losing five straight games, but they should be able to add some significant defensive prowess to Giannis’ team.
