However, in his sophomore year, Mitchell exploded as he averaged 15.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per game en route to being named as part of the All-ACC First team. He then declared for the 2017 NBA Draft following his second year.

Mitchell immediately emerged as the Utah Jazz’s top offensive option as he averaged 20.5 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 3.7 assists in his rookie year. He also won the 2018 NBA Slam Dunk Contest during the NBA All-Star Weekend.
After a number of off-court antics in regards to Ben Simmons’ and Donovan Mitchell’s campaign for the Rookie of the Year award, Mitchell eventually lost to Simmons. Despite not winning the award, he was still named to the All-Rookie First Team.
Donovan Mitchell, nicknamed “Spida”, continued to improve during his first few years in the NBA. This is why in the 2019-2020 NBA season, he was selected as an NBA All-Star for the first time in his career.
He averaged 24 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 4.3 assists during his maiden All-Star season en route to an electrifying output at the 2020 NBA Playoffs. Mitchell joined elite company in Michael Jordan and Allen Iverson as the only players to score 50 or more twice in a playoff series.
Unfortunately, Donovan Mitchell and the Utah Jazz bowed out of the playoffs against Jamal Murray and the Denver Nuggets in an intense and entertaining seven-game series.
On November 23, 2020, Donovan Mitchell signed a five-year rookie scale contract extension worth $163 million. The deal has a player option on the fifth year and the total sum can be bumped up to $193 million if Mitchell is named to an All-NBA team.
According to Spotrac, this enormous deal brings Mitchell’s average salary to $32,600,060, and his career earnings up to $177,337,086 once the contract ends.
Along with his lucrative NBA contract, Donovan Mitchell has an endorsement deal with mega shoe brand Adidas. He has been with the three stripes ever since his rookie year and he already has three signature shoes with Adidas!
“When my agents and I were talking about the sneaker deal, I thought it was going to be the typical agent meeting where they promise you a shoe deal and you’re like, Alright, I’m not that good, this is for guys who are big-time,” says Mitchell on his interview with Slam Online. “So when it happened, I was like, Wow, you were right, it did happen! It was a no-brainer going with adidas and I’m blessed and happy to be in this position and hope to keep representing them for a long period of time.”
His signature shoes are named D.O.N. Issue #1, #2, and #3. He also partners with different brands and intellectual properties to release limited colorways for his shoes.
Despite being a top-notch NBA professional and one of the best young players in the league today, Donovan Mitchell doesn’t forget to give back to the community. That’s why he set up his foundation, ‘SPIDACARES’.
According to the foundation’s website, they aim to promote physical well-being and mental health, ethical character, confidence, and good sportsmanship through supporting youth and athletic programs.
SPIDACARES awards grants and scholarships to students with financial needs that exemplify the hard work, empathy and leadership embodied in Donovan’s commitment to Determination Over Negativity.
Donovan Mitchell still has a whole career ahead of him. He is one of the young stars that will be the face of the NBA in the near future, and it is no doubt that he will bag more lucrative contracts before his career is said and done.
