Davion Mitchell struggled with persistent shooting issues during his tenure with the Sacramento Kings. The guard converted merely 32 percent of three-point attempts across his first two NBA seasons. Toronto briefly acquired Mitchell before the Miami Heat claimed him at the trade deadline. The midseason move proved transformative for the former Baylor standout.
Mitchell converted 44.7 percent of three-point shots during 30 games with Miami. The Heat rewarded his performance by signing him to a two-year contract worth $24 million. Mitchell will assume starting responsibilities while Tyler Herro recovers from ankle surgery. NBA analyst David Thorpe observed Mitchell's refined shooting mechanics during summer pickup games in Los Angeles.
