HOF Isaiah Thomas says D Mitchell is already a legit superstar. Anybody disagree?

disagree, he's phenomenal and I don't think you could go wrong with him or Simmons

But right now, he's just a volume shooter:
17.2 attempts for 20.5 points
Series vs OKC:
22 attempts for 27 points
25 attempts for 28 points
20 attempts for 22 points
28 attempts for 33 points

At this point, he's just monta ellis-early career.

He's gotta take the next step, in efficiency, facilitating, and getting to the line to become a superstar.

Look at Devin Booker this year:
19.5 attempts, 24.9 points, 4.7 assists. He's still not there yet, but he's close. bump up the FG% from 43.2->45.0% and become a better passer (3.6TOV is a lot). He's going to the line a lot more, becoming more aggressive on finishing.
