DraftExpress (Jonathan Givony): 12th
CBS Sports (Gary Parrish): 17th
The Ringer (Kevin O’Connor): 11th

The Step Back (Chris Stone): 12th
Kevin O’Connor of The Ringer views Mitchell as a point guard due to his abilities defensively and in the pick-and-roll.
"“Mitchell’s best skill is his defense. He can hound opposing point guards like he does in the clip above and he’s also long enough (6-foot-10 wingspan) with a bulky frame to switch onto larger wings.”"
Gary Parrish of CBS Sports projected Mitchell to the Bucks in his latest mock draft, alluding to his well-rounded skill-set being a nice fit alongside Giannis.
"“He’s an undersized but strong shooting guard with above-average athleticism who could fit nicely next to Giannis Antetokounmpo in Milwaukee.”"
