Mitchell will win ROY in a cakewalk unless he slows down dramatically.
You all know I am as big a Aussie homer than there is, but Simmons can't compete with what Mitch is doing atm. The 76ers look lost when Embiid isn't out there, and Simmons is generally too passive (due to his shooting limitations) and he has now been figured out by the league. Players are predicting his passes a lot and he is being forced into multiple coverages whenever he wants to attack the rim.
To be fair to Simmons, he is pretty impressive defensively - albeit he doesn't cover the opponents pg on a consistent basis. But his defensive output has surpassed Mitchell's at this time. But in a miss or make league, that hardly matters when talking about individual awards.
The question I have now is, Mitchell is clearly better than Simmons right now... Who will have the better career? Safe bet appears to be Donovan...
