Mitchell is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls due to right hand soreness.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell has come off the bench in each of the last three games but has scored in double figures in two of those appearances. If he's unavailable Wednesday, Donte DiVincenzo and Josh Jackson should see increased run.

Mitchell will come off the bench Wednesday against the Timberwolves, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell averaged 17.4 points, 2.0 rebounds and 4.9 assists while starting the past seven games, but he'll move to the bench in favor of Justin Holiday, who is starting in his debut for the Kings. Mitchell should still operate as the top guard off the bench for Sacramento.

Mitchell had eight points (3-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Tuesday's 134-114 loss to Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

Making his seventh consecutive start in the backcourt, the rookie struggled to get anything going offensively, as he committed five turnovers while hitting only three of his 11 attempts from the field. While De'Aaron Fox returned from an ankle injury, the Kings shipped out Tyrese Haliburton on Tuesday, which should clear the way for Mitchell to start alongside Fox going forward. It's possible, however, that the Kings may not be done making moves ahead of Thursday's trade deadline.

Mitchell closed Thursday's 126-114 loss to the Warriors with 26 points (11-17 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-3 FT), eight assists and one steal in 38 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell led Sacramento in scoring in the loss and posted the highest point total of his NBA career. The rookie registered the impressive scoring effort with an efficient performance in which he knocked down 11 of 17 shot attempts. Mitchell has started each of the Kings' past five games, averaging 19.4 points and 5.6 assists over that span.

Mitchell finished Wednesday's 112-101 win over the Nets with 18 points (8-19 FG, 2-8 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and one steal over 35 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell was the direct replacement for De'Aaron Fox (ankle) in the lineup, and the talented rookie came through with one of his better performances this season. His 19 shot attempts marked his highest shot volume of the season, and although he failed to get anything going from three-point range, his increased opportunity helped him reach a respectable fantasy total. Mitchell's output should remain high during Fox's absence.

Mitchell closed Monday's 116-96 loss to New York with 18 points (8-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt), one rebound, six assists and two blocks in 34 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell got the start for the third straight game as the Kings continue to operate without De'Aaron Fox (ankle). Mitchell has been impressive during the three-game stretch, averaging 17.7 points, 5.7 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 3.0 three-pointers per contest. He'll almost certainly see a reduced role whenever Fox returns, though it's unclear how long the star point guard will be out.

Mitchell totaled 20 points (8-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 0-1 FT), two rebounds and six assists across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 121-104 loss to Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

With De'Aaron Fox (ankle) and Terence Davis (wrist) out, Mitchell drew his first start since Dec. 15 and just the second of his career. The rookie scored 20-plus points for the third time this season and dished out five-plus assists for the 10th time. However, it was Mitchell's first outing with at least 20 points and five assists in the same game. Davis is expected to be sidelined for an extended period, but Fox may be back soon, so Mitchell's expanded role may be diminished sooner rather than later.

Mitchell will move into the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Hawks, James Ham of ESPN 1320 in Sacramento reports

EDGE Analysis

With De'Aaron Fox (ankle) out and Terence Davis (wrist) also sidelined, the Kings will hand Mitchell his first start since Dec. 15. It will be only the second start of the rookie's career, and given the circumstances he should be set for a tangible increase in workload. For the month of January, Mitchell is averaging 7.8 points, 2.4 assists, 1.8 rebounds and 0.7 steals in 22.8 minutes. He's shooting just 36.4 percent from the floor and 27.5 percent from three in that span -- slightly below his season-long figures (38.8 percent FG; 29.8 percent 3Pt).

Mitchell ended with 16 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and four steals over 28 minutes during Sunday's 118-112 loss to the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie was thoroughly impactful despite the Kings' loss. He racked up a team-high seven assists, four steals as well as his first double-digit scoring game since late December. The crowded Sacramento backcourt makes the 23-year-old Mitchell an odd man out, but with Tyrese Haliburton entering COVID-19 protocols Sunday, Mitchell is streamable in deeper leagues over the next week.

Mitchell (COVID-19 protocols) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Mavericks.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell was sidelined for the last six games due to the league's health and safety protocols, but it appears as though he'll be back in action Wednesday. It wouldn't be surprising to see the 23-year-old on a minutes restriction following his lengthy absence.
