So it is not easier to score by any measure. But it happens, much less often than not, but sometimes.
Yes Donovan Mitchell is an NBA star. You are right, its a case-by-case basis (what is not?). We are debating Bouknight's case and whether dominating and winning basketball games in college might help him do that in the NBA.
From Mitchell's draft year & range for him and Bouk, college players not translating as well to pros outnumber, Josh Jackson,  Luke K, Dennis Smith JR (arguably Bouk comp), Zach Collins, Malik Monk (comp), Justin Jackson (comp) etc... And I see your Pop and raise that John Beilen found the NBA harder than college.
So I guess my point is that its harder, its unknown and that more success at the NCAA level could (in theory only as he's going pro) raise the long-term ceiling for Bouknight. 
It is only theoretical, and I'll of course be rooting for him to get drafted to the right spot, work hard, get stronger and have a great NBA career.
