Last Night, Louisville Cardinal forever Donovan Mitchell had a career night 41pts against the New Orleans Pelicans. He continues to shine in the NBA. He was only the 7th rookie in the modern era to score 40pts. The others were the likes of LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, & others. He score 29 of the 41pts in the second half. Donovan will always be a cardinal favorite and an early favorite for Rookie of the Year.
