Great quotes from Donovan Mitchell workout

Saint Cy of JFC said:
He does have a really smooth and quick release. According to DX he was 90th percentile on catch and shoot opportunities.

Yeah I saw that... just Klay is other worldly catch and shoot and that is not the first name that comes to mind imo.

I'm in on Hood for Mitchell too, but would be really worried about how Gordon would view that deal. Maybe you do it anyway and if that is what drives Gordon out of town then I'm not sure he was coming back. The Hayward free agency may hamper our ability to make a big deal.

I've watched 3 UL games on youtube. I'm all in on trading Hood for Mitchell.

Salary wise for impending cap crunches it makes sense. I also think Hood is likely a decent, but replaceable player. If I knew he'd stay healthy I'd be inclined to keep him, but I think injuries may nag him and keep him from being a very consistent player.
 
I wonder if he could fall to #15... I think we could do a Diaw plus #24 for Leonard and #15. Are there non-Hood deals we could do to get the guy?

Yeah, if I knew he would stay healthy I wouldn't want to trade him either, it's just aggravating especially given how poorly he shoots when he gets nagging injuries (because his shot is 99% legs).

Exactly... the thing that makes him unique is he can get his shot off when he wants to because he gets so high on his jumper... also allows guys to get underneath him and if he doesn't have the normal pop in his legs will throw him off.
 
I wonder if Charlotte would do a #11 for #24 and Exum or #24, 2018 OKC pick, and Trey Lyles. Probably not but I don't think the value is too far off.

I think we'd have to make a deal with Charlotte, maybe Sacramento. His stock is still rising. He may pass Ntilikina and Zach Collins when it's said and done.

His range is 11-17ish in the article Cy posted and I would agree with that. If Sac takes Fox or Smith I don't think they are going Mitchell.

If I was Philly I'd throw Covington, Holmes, and whatever filler it took to get to 12 and take the kid.

Lets see if that holds. He could go top 10. He seems to be that guy with the momentum rising before the draft. It happened with Oladipo and Marquese Chriss last year.

Highest I could see him going is #9... which is top 10 obviously. If Lauri was there at 12 I'd be all over that too. He could be the riser I suppose. Frank seems most likely to drop.
