HE'S JUST THAT SPECIAL


I always thought that if we just had a "Mitchell"
on the Utah Jazz, we would be better!

Thank you, Denver Nuggets, for drafting Donavan Mitchell #13,
and taking Trey Lyles off our hands!
Denver also gave us Rudy Gobert, so no need for Denver
to remember to get us a gift at Christmas!

Donavan Mitchell was the
 December Western Conference Rookie of the Month!

Hold on, Ben Simmons . . . you may not be a lock
on Rookie of the Year!
(Technically, Simmons shouldn't be considered.
He was there last year, but injured.  He learned a lot, though!)

The only Jazz player to be the
Rookie of the Year was
Darrell Griffith.
He attended the same college as Mitchell.
University of Louisville.

Draft Day


Family
His mom and sister come to visit a lot

He gets out and supports the community!
With Royce O'Neale at a BYU basketball game.





Loved by teammates

In the mix of Rookie of the Year Talk

(Notice it's Kyle Kuzma of Utah, not Lonzo Ball
who is hitting it big with the Lakers!)

Getting love from the greats, Paul George and Russel Westbrook.

And, the "King" himself!

Chris Paul

A funny side note.
Donovan did not have a driver's license when he
came to Utah.  He never finished to requirements!
He had a Connecticut learner's permit.
He had to get rides to practice and games.
All set now.
