Cleveland Cavaliers head coach JB Bickerstaff believes that 2024 NBA All-Star reserve Donovan Mitchell could easily be starting for the Eastern Conference.
(via Cleveland Cavaliers):
“He’s a superstar, I don’t think there’s any question about that. In my opinion, if it wasn’t a popularity contest, he should be a starter. That’s not a knock on the other guys that are, because obviously they’re elite and there’s only five of those spots, but you’re hard-pressed to find a guy positionally who plays the game better than Donovan does and how important he is to us all over the floor. It’s not just the ability to create and carry a game, but his ability to make his teammates better, have empathy for his teammates, understanding when they need the ball, how to create for them, and to lead them. So he’s a superstar, and he continues to prove it every night.”
