Donovan Mitchell and Julius Randle get into altercation

Donovan Mitchell is still one of the NBA’s brightest success stories. Far from a lottery pick, Mitchell was expected to be a strong role player. Immediately, he became the Utah Jazz’s best player. After losing Gordon Hayward, the Jazz were expected to be terrible. Instead, Donovan and Rudy Gobert formed a strong duo. By 2021, they had the NBA’s best record. However, by 2022, the Jazz tore the team apart. Now, Mitchell plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers. He’s led them to the playoffs, where he and the Knicks’ Julius Randle got into it.

Donovan Mitchell arrived in Cleveland and immediately began breaking records. Playing for the Cavs means the legacy of LeBron James looms. In his first season, Donovan broke the franchise record for points in a game. His 71 points were the most points scored by a player in a game since Devin Booker’s 70 points against the Celtics. All of this was a part of the Cavs’ run to their first playoff since 2018.

Donovan Mitchell is clearly the Cleveland Cavaliers’ franchise player. Not only did he lead them to the playoffs, but he also led them to the fourth seed. As a result, the Cavs have home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs. Playing the Knicks, the Cavs had a tough game. Actually, Donovan and Julius Randle, from the Knicks, got into a shoving match. On the sidelines, Spike Lee was loving it. What he loved more was New York’s 101-97 win in Cleveland to take Game 1.
