NBA
Donovan Mitchell imitated Luka Doncic with a miss and a basket on an exhale on his unforgettable night
Donovan Mitchell did everything he could to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to victory over the Chicago Bulls. Including the (deliberately) missed shot with 4.7” rest in the regulations, from which the equalizer and overtime followed.
Last night was all about Donovan Mitchell in the NBA. His 71 points against the Chicago Bulls were enough to make him the talk of the town and overshadow everything else that’s happened in the rest of the NBA games.
The special thing about his case is, among other things, that he had to lead the game into overtime in a special way. He intentionally missed a shot at 4.7”, grabbed the offensive rebound himself and scored immediately after. Just like Luka Doncic a few days ago in the Dallas Mavericks game against the New York Knicks.
Donovan Mitchell’s inspiration worked, the match with the Bulls went into overtime and there he had the opportunity to make history, scoring 71 points.
