1. Mitchell Had His Third Straight 20 Point Game

It took him until the final 15 seconds, but Donovan Mitchell was able to get his third straight 20 point game in-a-row. It was something that we wrote about before the game and he definitely came through for his teammates on Saturday.

Not only did he shoot well against Georgia Tech, but he had an all-around great game.

He finished the afternoon with 20 points, 3 blocks, 1 steal, 4 assists, and 3 rebounds.

Mitchell was everywhere on the court against the Yellow Jackets and looked like a player who was trying to prove he was worthy of being a 1st Round Draft pick. With that being said, hopefully he will decide to stay one more year.
