Matt Mitchell - College Basketball News & Rumors

Back in action against SJSU Mitchell had seven points (3-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-3 FT), seven rebounds and three assists across 28 minutes in Wednesday's 77-55 victory over San Jose State.

Impact Chalk this up as a tune-up game for the senior, who missed out on Monday's matchup due to an ankle injury. The Aztecs will need every bit of Mitchell's services down the stretch, as a six-game winning streak has pulled them within 1.5 games of the Mountain West regular season title. Their journey continues next week with a pair of games against Fresno State before closing out the year with a season-deciding two-game set against Boise State.

Scores 10 in return Mitchell (knee) tallied 10 points (2-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds and three assists over 14 minutes in Sunday's 91-59 win over Air Force.

Impact Mitchell was warming up ahead of Sunday's game, and he returned to the court after a two-game absence. Although he came off the bench and played a season-low 14 minutes, the senior was still productive and could see his role ramp back up as he regains his conditioning.

Warming up Sunday Mitchell (knee) is warming up ahead of Sunday's game against Air Force, Mark Zeigler of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact Coach Brian Dutcher said Saturday that he didn't think Mitchell would be able to play against the Falcons on Sunday, but he's in uniform for the game after warming up. He isn't in the starting five, and it's unclear whether he'll appear during the game. However, the senior appears to be trending toward a return in the near future.

Won't play Saturday Mitchell (knee) won't play Saturday against Utah State, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Mitchell is dealing with a hyperextended right knee as well as a bone bruise. His initial timeline for returning is two weeks, meaning he could miss four to five games if that ends up being the case. It's currently unclear how Mitchell's vacated minutes will be divvied up in the coming games, though Aguek Arop figures to be one of the main beneficiaries.

Game-time call Saturday Mitchell (knee) will be a game-time call for Saturday's game at Utah State, according to Ajay Salvesen of Utah State's official website.

Impact Mitchell was seen on the court rebounding for teammates and had taken a couple of shots, but the coaching staff remains undecided on whether to play him Saturday or not. He is averaging 15.3 points per game while scoring in double digits in every appearance this season, so his presence could provide a huge boost to San Diego State's offense.

Undergoes MRI Mitchell underwent an MRI on his knee, Mark Zeigler of the San Diego Unioni-Tribune reports.

Impact Mitchell departed Thursday's game against Utah State with the knee issue and could be headed for more time on the shelf pending the results of the MRI. He was at least spotted doing some small things in practice Friday, so there's a chance his layoff won't be a long one if he's forced to miss additional action.
