3. Davion Mitchell
How good can Davion Mitchell actually be? He is an interesting prospect because of his skillset and current age. Mitchell is one of the oldest prospects in the draft at 22 years old and saw his draft stock rise significantly during Baylor’s NCAA Tournament run this season.
This could be a bit of a red flag. Mitchell is certainly a first-round pick and good enough to be in the lottery but there are mocks that have him as high as seventh-overall. With where he is being drafted, there is a chance that Mitchell does not live up to the hype.
This can change if he is put in the right situation. Mitchell is the type of player that will benefit from being on a team looking to win. If the Golden State Warriors add Mitchell, he could pan out the way he is supposed to.
On a team like the Orlando Magic, Mitchell could struggle to be that focal point. He is one of the best on-ball defenders in the draft, which would help a team off the bench.

When looking at the skillset matched up with draft position and size, Mitchell could be a question mark heading into the NBA. He comes from a winning program in college but that does not always translate to the next level.
