Mark Mitchell Lands at Kentucky | College Basketball News

Mark Mitchell, a proven scorer and McDonald’s All-American, just became a Kentucky Wildcat after winning a historic legal battle against the NCAA — granting him an extra year of eligibility. After immediately jumping into the transfer portal, he committed to Kentucky over the weekend, filling a critical need for coach Mark Pope’s squad. A former Duke standout who led Missouri in scoring, rebounding, and assists as a senior, Mitchell brings elite physicality and a knack for drawing fouls — including leading the SEC in free-throw attempts. While his three-point game is unproven, Kentucky’s offensive firepower should unlock his potential, making him a major upgrade for a team hungry for a breakthrough season.
