. DONOVAN MITCHELL. A -. . Utah Jazz

Overall GPA: 3.53 (A-minus) 

Mitchell is just 40 games into his career and has already become the face of this franchise.

This is the third time in four grades that Mitchell has had the highest marks on the team.

A few recent poor outings from the floor drop the rookie SLIGHTLY this time around, however, Donovan is quickly climbing the ranks among the league’s promising young stars.

Despite his electric play, Micthell still finds himself on the outside looking in for the All-Star game next month.

While an argument could be made both for or against Mitchell’s right to be selected this year, a few of the names ahead of him on the current All-Star voting seem suspect…

Cough, cough. Lonzo. Cough.

Conveniently enough, any All-Star vote cast today is worth DOUBLE.

As you have probably come to expect in my recent articles, here is another plug to get the rookie an invite to LA come February 18.
