Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Paul VI is playing as well as any high school team in the country right now, and the emergence of Mitchell is the main reason why, outside of the heroics of five-star Jordan Smith. A last-minute transfer from Varina (VA) with varsity experience since 8th grade, Mitchell is coming off an injury-riddled spring and summer but has played his best basketball this winter as a consistent co-star to Smith on the perimeter. He slots in seamlessly as a dynamic off-ball catch-and-shoot threat with a polished skillset putting it on the deck past closeouts as a scorer or playmaker for others. Mitchell uses his broad, muscular frame to crash the glass and defend up the lineup in for an undersized PVI group. His blend of efficient scoring and cerebral floor instincts has begun to attract high-major attention as he stacks big performances under the national spotlight.
