Mitchell finished with 16 points (7-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 25 minutes off the bench during Friday's 124-120 overtime victory over the Timberwolves.

EDGE Analysis

De'Aaron Fox (knee) missed a second straight game Friday, but rather than getting a second straight start in his place, Mitchell moved back to the second unit and gave way to Keon Ellis. The move seemed to agree with Mitchell, who tied his season scoring high and scored in double digits for only the second time in the last 16 games. The third-year guard's lack of consistency makes him tough to roster even in deep fantasy leagues.

Mitchell will come off the bench for Friday's game against the Timberwolves, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

De'Aaron Fox (knee) is out again Friday, but the Kings are rolling with Keon Ellis as their starting point guard. Mitchell had a quiet showing Wednesday versus the Nuggets, scoring five points with three assists on 2-of-5 shooting in 16 minutes.

Mitchell is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Nuggets, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Mitchell will replace De'Aaron Fox (knee) in the starting five Wednesday. However, Mitchell has scored double-digit points in only one of his previous three starts this season.

Mitchell is expected to move into the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets with De'Aaron Fox (knee) unavailable, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

Across three starts this season, Mitchell has posted averages of 8.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.7 triples, 1.0 steals and 1.0 turnovers per contest on 37.0 percent shooting from the floor. He can be viewed as a low-end streaming option in deep leagues.

Mitchell supplied five points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and two steals in 16 minutes during Monday's 103-94 victory over the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell is averaging 16.0 minutes across his last four games after picking up three consecutive DNP-CDs. He has averaged 5.0 points on 7-for-16 shooting over that span, but his value is derived from his hounding defense, which yields no fantasy relevance.

Mitchell had four points (1-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and one rebound in 14 minutes during Tuesday's 111-104 loss to Charlotte.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell lost his spot in the rotation to Keon Ellis earlier in the season, but the former has played double-digit minutes in three straight games, while the latter has played just four total minutes during that stretch. However, both players will likely be on the outskirts of fantasy radars moving forward, barring multiple injuries.

Mitchell scored one point (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and added two assists over 15 minutes in Tuesday's 119-99 loss to the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Since missing back-to-back contests due to an illness, Mitchell has been eased back into the lineup, and Tuesday was his first game in which he played double-digit minutes since returning. Through 15.1 minutes, he averages 4.2 points, 2.4 assists, 1.1 rebounds, 0.3 steals and 0.1 blocks on the season.

Mitchell (illness) is not listed on the injury report for Monday's game against the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell didn't play in Saturday's contest due to an illness, but he will return to action after missing just one game. The third-year pro is averaging 4.4 points, 2.8 assists and 0.8 rebounds in 12.0 minutes per game over his last five appearances.

Mitchell is out for Saturday's game versus the Nuggets due to an illness, Brenden Nunes of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell was a late addition to the injury report and won't play in Saturday's game due to an illness. Keon Ellis, Malik Monk and Colby Jones are candidates to receive increased minutes in his absence. Mitchell's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with the Pelicans.

Mitchell provided two points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and eight assists in 19 minutes during Monday's 129-93 loss to the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell recently lost the top backup point guard spot to Keon Ellis (ankle), but the former reclaimed a role Monday due to numerous injuries. Ellis and Sasha Vezenkov (thumb) were ruled out prior to tipoff, while Chris Duarte (hand) and Keegan Murray (back) left the contest early. Kevin Huerter also played through a finger injury that sidelined him for Sacramento's previous contest. If the Kings are shorthanded moving forward, Mitchell should be a consistent part of the rotation. Across 10 appearances (three starts), Mitchell has averaged 5.1 points, 3.1 assists and 1.3 rebounds in 19.6 minutes per game.
