EDGE Analysis
Mitchell has played effectively in De'Aaron Fox's (hand) absence and has been one of the most prolific rookies in the league as the season draws to a close. Mitchell will likely finish out the season as the starting point guard against the top-seeded Suns in the season finale, although Fox's status mya upgraded before tip-off.
