In spite of his awesome talent and humble nature, Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell often finds himself the target of a small, but vocal contingent of detractors on NBA Twitter. The brunt of them come from Philly and/or Boston (and it’s not hard to figure out why), and, man, have they have been busy lately with Mitchell and Team USA struggling to a seventh-place finish at the FIBA World Cup.
Their chirping aside, though, Mitchell had a really strong run overall in the tournament. Over eight games (all starts) he put up 13 points, five assists, four boards and one steal per contest.
