Solid production in return
Mitchell (shoulder) recorded 13 points (5-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt), six assists, two rebounds and two steals across 21 minutes Sunday in the Heat's 134-91 win over the Bulls.
Analyse
After missing the previous six games while recovering from a left shoulder sprain, Mitchell stepped back into the starting five and came through with an efficient, all-around line in his first appearance since Jan. 20. Though he was limited to just over 20 minutes in his return, Mitchell likely would have played more had the Heat not built a 39-point lead after three quarters. Mitchell and most of the Heat's other key contributors ended up sitting out the entire fourth quarter as a result.

Available Sunday
Mitchell (shoulder) is available for Sunday's game against the Bulls.
Analyse
As expected, Mitchell will shed his probable tag and return from a six-game absence due to a left shoulder sprain. With the 27-year-old point guard back in action, there will be fewer minutes available for guys like Kasparas Jakucionis and Dru Smith. In nine January appearances, Mitchell averaged 7.9 points, 6.6 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.1 steals across 26.2 minutes per game.

Likely to play Sunday
Mitchell (shoulder) is probable for Sunday's game against the Bulls.
Analyse
Mitchell has been sidelined for the past six games due to a left shoulder sprain but is trending toward a return Sunday. The guard is averaging 9.0 points, 7.2 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.2 steals through 40 appearances this season, all starts. Mitchell's anticipated return should push at least one of Kasparas Jakucionis or Myron Gardner back to the bench after both drew starts Saturday.

Won't play Saturday
Mitchell (shoulder) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Bulls.
Analyse
Mitchell will miss a sixth consecutive game due to a left shoulder sprain, and his next chance to suit up is in Sunday's rematch against Chicago, though he doesn't appear to have an established timeline to return. Rookie Kasparas Jakucionis should continue to start for Miami for as long as Mitchell is sidelined.
30. Januar 2026
Doubtful for Saturday
Mitchell (shoulder) is doubtful to play Saturday versus the Bulls.
Analyse
Mitchell is on track to sit out his sixth straight game Saturday, which isn't surprising given that he has yet to get through a full practice with the team. Dru Smith and Kasparas Jakucionis will continue to pick up the slack while Mitchell is out.
29. Januar 2026
Ruled out Thursday
Mitchell (shoulder) will not play Thursday against the Bulls.
Analyse
Mitchell will be sidelined for a fifth straight game, and there's been no indication that he's close to a return. Dru Smith, Kasparas Jakucionis and Pelle Larsson will likely see an uptick in minutes in the meantime.
28. Januar 2026
Ruled out for Wednesday
Mitchell (shoulder) won't suit up for Wednesday's game against the Magic.
Analyse
This will be Mitchell's fourth consecutive game on the inactive list, and considering he still hasn't practiced, that number could hit five for Friday's game in Chicago. Dru Smith, Kasparas Jakucionis and Pelle Larsson will continue to pick up the slack while Mitchell and Tyler Herro (ribs) are out.
28. Januar 2026
Downgraded to doubtful
Mitchell is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Orlando with a left shoulder sprain.
Analyse
Mitchell is set to miss a fourth straight game with the sprain, though he at least seems to be day-to-day. With Tyler Herro (ribs) still sidelined, Dru Smith and Kasparas Jakucionis appear to be in line to split the minutes at point guard for the Heat on Wednesday.
27. Januar 2026
Questionable with shoulder sprain
Mitchell is questionable for Wednesday's game against Orlando with a left shoulder sprain.
Analyse
Mitchell is trying to end a three-game absence with the sprain. With Tyler Herro (ribs) still on the shelf and Norman Powell (back) also iffy for Wednesday, the bulk of the ball-handling responsibilities could fall onto Dru Smith and Kasparas Jakucionis at point guard.
