Davion Mitchell led the Heat with 22 points (8-of-13 FGs), one rebound, 10 assists, one steal and three three-pointers in a 15-110 loss to the Hornets on Saturday.
Miami trailed by 21 points entering the fourth quarter, but Mitchell fueled a monster comeback, mostly with Giannis Antetokounmpo on the bench. That didn’t result in a win, but it was another strong performance for him. He has been fantastic this year, averaging 17.0 points, 8.7 assists and 2.3 three-pointers per game, all of which would be career bests for him. He has been a bright spot despite a rough start to the year for Miami.
