Mitchell has signed with Aquila Basket Trento of Serie A. |
Mitchell inked a 10-day deal with the short-handed Bucks during the 2013-14 season but otherwise spent the majority of the year with Fort Wayne of the NBA's D-League. In 30 games at the latter, the 25-year-old guard averaged 20.2 points (on 43.2 percent shooting), 4.9 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.0 three-pointers, 1.1 steals, and 1.1 blocks in 28.5 minutes. |
Thu Mar 6 2014 | 02:02 | Tony Mitchell makes his NBA debut |
Tony Mitchell made his NBA debut against the Kings on Wednesday, scoring two points with one board in three minutes. |
He's a wing on a team looking for as much help at those spots as possible, so at least has a chance for minutes. Mitchell scored 19.4 points per game with the Fort Wayne Mad Ants this season, but he'll have to play well to earn a second 10-day deal in the big leagues. |

Thu Jun 27 2013 | 23:17 | Detroit get Tony Mitchell with 37th pick |
The Pistons landed North Texas F Tony Mitchell with the 37th pick. |
He's a forward who can block shots and might be a steal here, as he was projected to go in the first round. He's a solid rebounder and compares to Kenneth Faried, which should make him a nice fit for the Pistons. |

Tue Jun 11 2013 | 16:34 | Knicks are 'especially high' on Tony Mitchell |
According to ESPN, the Knicks are "especially high" on North Texas F Tony Mitchell. |
The Knicks view Mitchell as a power forward option at 6'9/236. He drew some comparisons to Kenneth Faried after averaging 14.7 points and 10.3 rebounds on 56.7 percent shooting as a freshman, but those numbers sunk to 13.0, 8.5 and 44.0 as a sophomore. At No. 24 overall, Mitchell is certainly worth a flier. |

Sat Jun 8 2013 | 22:41 | Tony Mitchell's draft stock on the rise |
North Texas F Tony Mitchell has worked out for the Knicks, Blazers, Bulls, Nuggets and Jazz. |
Mitchell admits that his effort was sporadic during his sophomore season, which caused his draft stock to slump, but he's on the rise after a strong pre-draft camp in Chicago -- most scouts feel he's the most athletic player in the draft. The Knicks worked him out on Friday may very well take him if he's available at No. 24. |

Sun May 19 2013 | 05:28 | Tony Mitchell laments lousy sophomore year |
North Texas F Tony Mitchell regrets his mediocre sophomore season, which dropped him from a potential lottery pick to an uncertain commodity. |
"I wish I could've changed it," he said this weekend, after interviewing with the Pistons. "I would've changed my effort, how I competed every game." Mitchell averaged 13.0 points and 8.5 rebounds last year, both down from his rookie season, and his lack of intensity and focus has made NBA teams very wary. Rotoworld's latest mock draft has Mitchell going to the Jazz (via Golden State) at No. 21 overall. |
