Davion Mitchell has been a major contributor to Miami’s offense this season, averaging 16.2 points and 8.5 assists per game. That gives him a combined average of 24.7 points and assists, comfortably above the 21,5 line.
His recent performances make this selection particularly interesting. Mitchell has cleared 21,5 points + assists in 8 of his last 10 games, including four of his last five. He recorded 28 combined against Sacramento, 30 against Golden State and 26 against Indiana.
The matchup against Utah also looks promising. The Jazz have struggled defensively this season, and their absence of Keyonte George could give Mitchell additional opportunities to control the game and create scoring chances for his teammates.
With Mitchell playing heavy minutes and handling significant playmaking responsibilities, he has a good opportunity to contribute in both categories.
