Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Puts up 11 points in loss
Mitchell racked up 11 points (4-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and three steals across 24 minutes during Monday's 124-97 loss to Charlotte.
Mitchell was the only reserve to find much success for Oklahoma City other than Kenrich Williams. Mitchell's minutes have been held in check recently with 23.9 minutes per game over his last six contests, but he's been a sixth-round fantasy value in nine-category leagues during that span with 12.5 points, 3.5 assists, 2.5 rebounds, 1.7 steals and 1.2 three-pointers.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Will play Monday
Mitchell (shin) is available for Monday's game against the Hawks.
Mitchell sustained a left shin contusion in the fourth quarter of Sunday's win over Philadelphia and did not return. However, he'll shed his questionable tag Monday and suit up in the second leg of this back-to-back set. Over his last five appearances, the 23-year-old guard has averaged 13.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.6 steals in 23.6 minutes per game.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Questionable for Monday
Mitchell is questionable for Monday's game against the Hawks with a left shin contusion.
Mitchell suffered his contusion during Sunday's game against the 76ers and was unable to return. Although he's day-to-day, the Thunder may opt for caution for the second leg of this back-to-back set.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Doesn't return Sunday
Mitchell (ankle) left Sunday's game against the 76ers in the fourth quarter and did not return.
Mitchell suffered an apparent ankle injury in the fourth quarter and went back to the locker room. He did not retake the floor. Mitchell logged 13 points (5-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three assists, one rebound and two steals across 20 minutes before departing. His next chance to play will come Monday against Atlanta.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Heads to locker room
Mitchell went back to the locker room during Sunday's game against the 76ers due to an apparent ankle issue, Rylan Stiles of SI.com reports.
Mitchell seemingly tweaked his ankle while breaking up an alley-oop attempt earlier in the game, and the issue will require a trip to the locker room. Considering the Thunder are up 25 points midway through the fourth quarter, it's unlikely he'll return to the contest.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Not on injury report for Sunday
Mitchell (concussion) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the 76ers.
Mitchell is set to return from a two-game absence due to a concussion. Over his last five outings, the 23-year-old guard has averaged 12.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.4 steals in 23.4 minutes per game off the bench.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Won't play Christmas Day
Mitchell (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Spurs, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Mitchell will miss a second consecutive game while in the league's concussion protocol, which he'll look to clear in time to return for Sunday's game against the 76ers. Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe and Alex Caruso will continue to see more minutes off the bench in Mitchell's absence.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Ruled out Tuesday
Mitchell (concussion) will not play Tuesday against the Spurs.
After leaving Monday's game early, Mitchell has since been diagnosed with a concussion. That makes it unlikely that he'll be cleared in time for Christmas Day against the Spurs. Alex Caruso, Isaiah Joe and Cason Wallace could see more reps in Mitchell's absence.

Mitchell (undisclosed) exited Monday's 119-103 win over Memphis in the fourth quarter and did not return.
Mitchell headed to the back with 6:29 remaining in the final quarter and did not check back in. He finished with 16 points (7-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and two steals in 22 minutes. His status will be worth monitoring ahead of Tuesday's matchup against the Spurs.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Leaves for locker room
Mitchell (undisclosed) exited to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Monday's game against the Grizzlies, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
It's unclear why Mitchell left for the locker room, though he checked out with 6:29 remaining in the final quarter. If he's unable to return in the final minutes, he'll finish with 16 points (7-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and two steals in 22 minutes.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Productive off bench Thursday
Mitchell ended with 16 points (7-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and two steals in 29 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 122-101 win over the Clippers.
Nine of those points came in the fourth quarter, as Mitchell took advantage of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander getting pulled early in the big win. It was the first time in five games that Mitchell scored in double digits, while the seven boards tied his season high. The second-year guard typically doesn't see that kind of shot volume -- he last attempted double-digit field goals against the Jazz on Nov. 21. Through six games (two starts) to begin December, Mitchell is averaging 10.0 points, 3.7 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.2 threes in 26.0 minutes a contest despite shooting 50.0 percent from the floor and 46.7 percent (7-for-15) from long distance.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Downward trend continues
Mitchell supplied nine points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal across 19 minutes during Wednesday's 138-89 win over the Suns.
Mitchell continues to see his role reduce, logging fewer than 20 minutes for just the third time this season. While it was a red-hot start for Mitchell, his production has plateaued of late, as Oklahoma City starts to get healthy bodies back on the floor. In three games over the past week, Mitchell has averaged 8.3 points, 3.3 assists and 1.0 steals in 23.4 minutes. It's hard to make a case for him being a must-roster player based on what we have seen during that span.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Shifts back to bench
Mitchell isn't part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Suns, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Mitchell had started in two of OKC's last three games due to the absences of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Luguentz Dort. However, both are healthy Wednesday, meaning Mitchell will rejoin the reserves. In 17 appearances with the second unit, Mitchell is averaging 14.0 points, 3.1 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.4 steals across 25.2 minutes.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Starting Sunday
Mitchell is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game in Utah, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
With Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (elbow) unavailable, Mitchell is getting the start, and he'll be joined in the first unit by Cason Wallace, Jalen Williams, Jaylin Williams and Chet Holmgren. Over six starts this season, Mitchell owns averages of 16.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.5 triples, 2.0 steals and 1.8 turnovers per contest on 51/50/91 shooting splits.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Moving back to second unit
Mitchell will come off the bench for Friday's game against Dallas, Rylan Stiles of SI.com reports.
Mitchell started Tuesday's contest due to Luguentz Dort's (thigh) absence, and while Dort remains out Friday, the Thunder are instead going big with Jaylin Williams against Dallas. In 16 games off the bench, Mitchell is averaging 14.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.4 steals across 25.4 minutes per contest.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Entering starting five Tuesday
Mitchell is in the Thunder's starting lineup against the Warriors on Tuesday, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Mitchell will make his sixth start of the season Tuesday and first since Nov. 12 against the Lakers due to the absence of Luguentz Dort (thigh). In five games as a starter, Mitchell has averaged 18.2 points, 4.4 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 2.2 steals over 30.2 minutes per game.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Productive off bench
Mitchell totaled 17 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Sunday's 123-115 win over Portland.
Another game, another instance where Mitchell shows his worth as a versatile combo guard who can make an impact on both ends of the court. Mitchell was limited to five minutes Friday against the Suns due to a left knee contusion, but that injury didn't bother him at all Sunday. Excluding that early exit against the Suns, Mitchell has scored in double digits in all but one game this season while coming off the bench in all but five games. He's averaging 15.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game.
