Seeing the improvement he’s made to his free throws I don’t see it’s too crazy to see him work in a mid range shot similar to amare stoudemires range over the summer. Add 10-20 lbs to his frame And we have a starting center for years to come.
Things for Mitch to work on before the start of 2019-20:
1) strength to play take contact and finish in the paint - eventually be able to play bully ball down low
2) continue to become more vocal at both ends of the court. Learning schemes on defense and helping his teammates by communicating on D like Tyson chandler used to.
3) extending his game to incorporate the pick and pop. Every team is expecting the pick and lob which has been successful for Deandre in his career but giving Mitch the option to hit a 12-15 foot jumper will give the opposing defense nightmares
I think these 3 are attainable goals to work towards over the remainder of the year and the summer. They might not all happen this year but within the next 2-3 years wouldn’t be too bad
