2017 NBA Mock Draft 4.0: Los Angeles Lakers pass on Lonzo Ball; Josh Jackson rises
By Tony Webb
No. 18 Indiana Pacers- Donovan Mitchell (Louisville, SO, Shooting Guard)
Donovan Mitchell is rising up some draft boards due to his mixture of well-balanced offense and good defensive instincts.
Mitchell averaged 15.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.1 steals on 41 percent from the field and 35 percent from beyond the arc during his second season at Louisville.
He isn’t the biggest shooting guard out there – he’s actually quite undersized – but his versatility is a bright spot in some teams eyes as many wonder if he can run the point. He could fit nicely with the Pacers whether adding another shooter or perhaps learning the point from Jeff Teague.
