Louisville recruit Donovan Mitchell's Elite 24 alley-oop for the ages (Video)

Two dozen of the nation's top basketball recruits gathered in Brooklyn for the Under Armour Elite 24 basketball game this past weekend, and nobody announced his presence louder than Donovan Mitchell.

With help from a halfcourt heave of an alley-oop from Wayne (Pa.) Archbishop John Carroll High senior wing Derrick Jones, the Louisville-bound Mitchell reached back for a dunk of Vince Carter proportions.

Even with New York City as the backdrop for a game played outdoors in Brooklyn Bridge Park and a boatload of ridiculous dunks, nothing was prettier than Mitchell in motion.

Mitchell will be a senior at New Hampshire's Brewster Academy this fall. According to Rivals.com, he's a four-star recruit currently ranked No. 30 in the Class of 2015. Saturday, he just may have climbed higher.
