New Jazz draftee Elijah Hughes, who has arrived in Salt Lake City, also congratulated Mitchell in an Instagram Live video, but perhaps the best reaction so far has come from Eric Paschall, the second-year Golden State Warriors forward who has been Mitchell’s closest friend since the two were youngsters.
