North Texas forward Tony Mitchell declaring for NBA Draft

North Texas sophomore Tony Mitchell will declare for the NBA Draft.

Sources told CBSSports.com that the athletic 6-foot-8 forward will make the announcement at a news conference on Tuesday.

Mitchell began the season as a projected lottery pick, but his stock has fallen a bit. He is still projected as a late first-rounder by many NBA executives.

Mitchell averaged 13 points and 8.5 rebounds this season for a Mean Green team that struggled with a 12-20 record.
