I voted generational talent. He has that potential to be sure. The things is, will it pan out? The proof of the pudding is in the eating, as no one says because everyone gets the phrase wrong.
 
Fringe All Star this year but rising. I think a lot of teams are going to guard DM like Houston did putting Ariza on him.That really slowed him down. Also I don't think he's going to be All defense or 2nd team defense as well ...not guarding 2 guards ,he's tooo small.
He probably is more suited at PG (sizewise) but if Exum(healthy) takes off this year (ideal) then Jazz might have themselves a double headed PG tandem.

Rubio comes out like his 2nd half play of the last 2 seasons at the beginning of the season Jazz will be lethal where all 3 (DM,Exum,Rubio) bring out the best of each other. All 3 lethal at PG but playing position less BB. Fingers xed.

I think he'll be an 20 ppg scorer and first or second All NBA defensive team player. Basically, I think he'll combine the best aspects of CJ McCollum offensively and Avery Bradley defensively. I think he'll be able to have games where he hits 5 or 6 3-ptrs and scores 35 pts.

If he played in the Eastern Conference, he could make an All Star team, like Demar DeRozan and Bradley Beal have, but in the West it's tough. Lillard can't seem to make the ASG in the west.

I'll start with fringe All Star, but he has the potential to move up a notch from there. I think he can be a top 30 - 35 player in the league.

I think that Mitchell will be the kind of player that comes around once every 20 years, if not more. I know that this is a bold statement, but I think that he has the talent and the drive to make fans forget about CJ McCollum. I think that he WILL make the Allstar team in the West and push other players out of contention. I think that you should stop talking about the what if's of him playing in the East, and have a little more faith in the best thing that has happened to the NBA, let alone to the Jazz in a very long time.
 
I think he's got superstar talent and has the confidence and determination to be so. He's gonna have a big year this coming season.

I mean, he hasn’t even made an all star team yet, and a lot of **** can happen between now and “generational talent”, but fingers crossed

He's a generational talent already. What you're talking about is a generational player.
 
Where's the option for "He'll be exactly what he wants to be" or at the very least "The first ever Donovan Mitchell" (which of course implies better than any of the options listed).

Yeah, I wrote that a year ago when all we'd seen was Summer League.
 
I can see David Locke's Allen Iverson comp, but he's a better spot-up shooter and better player off the ball than AI.
 
Wow, never saw this thread when it came out. Guess because it was summer I wasn't going to the board much -- no wonder people complained when I said few people were that high on him.

Dude outplayed and knocked out the reigning MVP in his first playoff series on his rookie year. 'Can be top 30-35' is tooooo objective of an assessment.

There is a discussion on RealGM on whether Joe Ingles is a top 30 player.
