Javan Mitchell brings veteran size and paint presence to Southern
In the 2013-14 season, Southern’s Javan Mitchell was a 6-foot-9, 250-pound center with legitimate frontcourt bulk and veteran experience, a profile that fit a physical SWAC style and gave the Jaguars a true interior body. His value was less about flash and more about sturdiness: he could battle on the glass, finish around the rim, and hold position defensively in the lane. If your team needs a traditional big who plays with mass and knows his role, he’s the kind of low-drama, hard-nosed fit coaches tend to appreciate.
