Many fans took to Twitter to discuss Mitchell's appearance at Citi Field. New York Knicks fans are begging for the team to acquire him. Fans do not want him to leave the state.
Mitchell is one of the game's best young players. Given that he is from New York, he would be a perfect fit with the Knicks.
It is cool to see Mitchell around the Mets as he grew up a fan of the team. It's good to see athletes like Mitchell show cross-sport support.
Donovan Mitchell highlights
Mitchell has had a brilliant career and is still just 25 years old. The Jazz fell short in the playoffs this year, losing to the Dallas Mavericks, but Mitchell had perhaps his best individual season in 2022. Mitchell averaged 25.9 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 5.3 assists.
In five seasons, Mitchell has made three All-Star games and has averaged 23.9 points, 4.5 assists, and 1.3 steals over the course of his career. Here are some of Mitchell's best highlights.
Given how chaotic the NBA off-season has been, it would not be surprising if he wound up in New York. The Jazz has said that they are not interested in trading Mitchell, but as many know, anything can happen when it comes to trades and free agency.
