TONY MITCHELL - Not often is a Sun Belt Conference player projected to be an NBA Lottery pick, but Mitchell garnered that much attention last season as a freshman at North Texas. The Mean Green's star forward averaged a double-double consisting of 14.7 points and 10.3 rebounds per contest after becoming eligible at the start of the second semester. Mitchell was slated to play his college ball at Missouri, but transferred to North Texas due to academics. An extraordinary athlete who can score from anywhere on the court, Mitchell has the body (6-8) to cause matchup problems for just about every opponent. Despite being projected as an early first-round draft pick, a coaching change in Denton was enough to convince him to return for his sophomore season to mature as a player. As a result, keep an eye on UNT as it could develop into one of this year's surprise teams.
