Saw his Q&A the other day. He may be a real deal steal. Seems like a level headed, intelligent kid, and wants to be a Minuteman.

Was on UMass basketball on Facebook.
Re: Kolton Mitchell
I love all the optimism for the coming season, and we all hope this ship turns around...but how does one read a Q&A with an incoming freshman and conclude he could be a real steal? We all hope your right, but...

The decision to wait was based on trying to let the fracture heal on it's own which would have been a quicker timeline than if they had surgery immediately, which in retrospect would have been a quicker timeline than waiting 2 weeks to have surgery. They took a chance and lost 2 weeks because of it - it is what it is. PG remains incredibly thin with really only Sean East as our natural PG and Keon pitching in while East catches his breath. There is no doubt the offense runs different when East and Keon are out there - hoping for an expeditious recovery for Kolten.

The coach said he isn’t sure on the timeline for Mitchell’s injury, saying it will be based on how quickly the guard recovers from the procedure.

Has anyone heard how Kolton’s doing?

Re: KAEO Kolton Mitchell
He got hurt on 11/5, which was 5 weeks ago. I believe the expected recovery time was 6 weeks, but these things tend to go longer than expected. Hopefully his hand or wrist (not sure what he hurt exactly) is recovering well and he starts to get some reps in practice soon. Does anyone know if his injury was to his shooting or non-shooting hand?
Re: KAEO Kolton Mitchell
I thought I read that it was his left hand. Seeing Gordon Hayward back on the court last night made me wonder about Mitchell’s condition.

Gotta start counting from the surgery, which was 2 weeks after the injury.Juice Stand wrote: ↑Tue Dec 10, 2019 8:02 pm He got hurt on 11/5, which was 5 weeks ago.

Re: KAEO Kolton Mitchell
Didn't he get a few minutes a couple games back? Like right after surgery? I saw him in a box score, unless I'm mistaken.

He did appear in the Box score but it was an error.

Re: KAEO Kolton Mitchell
I thought it must have been. Stats online still showed it last I saw though. Very strange but zi do see errors made in real time stats during games. Last game they had Higgenbottom listed as on court when he wasn't but fixed it quickly.

Re: KAEO Kolton Mitchell
^ Yeah, they quickly misread a uniform number and it gets inserted. The final game stats, however, should not have this kind of error.
