9. Donovan Mitchell, Utah Jazz

The spider. There is a chance that the Donovan Mitchell train has been pushed for way too long, and it may come to a halt.

I’m all on board though, he is a great player that can honestly do just about anything you ask of him. Rookie of the Year may not happen because of second year player, Ben Simmons.

Oh, I meant “Rookie” Ben Simmons. My bad.

The comp here is interesting, I’m going to say a Jimmy Butler/Michael Redd mix.

If you don’t know about Michael Redd, take a look at his younger stuff. Dude was legit.
