LeBron is still taller than the average NBA player, and more to the point if he is being blitzed off a pick and roll, there is usually bound to be one short defender.
The point guards you listed are exceptional passers (first three have a claim to top 10 pg all time lists), and I'd argue Westbrook at 6'6" would have a better assist/turnover ratio than what he does now.
I don't think Mitchell is a natural passer and that combined with his short stature limits his ability in this area. I think a good comp for Mitchell (in terms of passing ability) would be Kawhi. If Kawhi was closer to 6' rather than his listed 6'7", I think his assists/to would be similar to Mitchell.
