News: 2 days agoMitchell tallied 22 points (7-19 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 7-8 FT), three rebounds, three assists and a steal across 33 minutes in Thursday's 114-111 loss to the Hawks.
Spin: Mitchell struggled from beyond the arc and missed two potential game-tying shots on Cleveland's final possession. His seven made free throws helped salvage his scoring output, but overall, this was a subpar stat line. Mitchell's substantial offensive responsibilities maintain his scoring upside. However, sharing playmaking duties with James Harden could lead to a few games where Mitchell will cede the primary scoring and playmaking role to Harden's hot hand.
