for himself at the end of the clock on a bad team. It is great he was finally able to take better shots on a decent team and showcase his talent.
Mitchell is a very good player but his 3 point shooting percentage being poor isn't because he was on a crappy team.
He might improve slightly year over year. But he doesn't need to be shooting 3s. Maybe one a game to keep the defense honest and give him space to move. If he shoots 27.5 % they will let him shoot and back off.
If Gates was a good coach he would have him lay off the 3s and let him play the skill set he has elite abilities for
But I am sure Duke told him not to shoot and he is coming here because Gates said he will let him take as many as he wants.
All bigs think it is the only way to the NBA
