itchell didn't have an opening statement so much as a sustained one. He moved the curve by inches in the first quarter — a clean look here, a contested stop there — and let the game come to him.
The third quarter is where it broke open — mitchell 27' 3pt step back jump shot (18 pts) (+2.8). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
By the time he checked out for good, Mitchell's line read +12.8 — earned, not held.
