Ignore his worst category (rebounds) and he's worth -0.97.
A top-five Sixth Man finish and a new extension say the breakout was real, and the steals-plus-FT%-plus-scoring blend is exactly what wins late rounds. The only governor is OKC's logjam behind SGA — upside if the minutes climb, a fine floor if they don't.
Ajay Mitchell enters 2026-27 at #153 on our board — Round 13 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 13.0 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.6 assists in 25.6 minutes a night. The value is built on turnovers and free-throw percentage, with rebounds the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-rebounds builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability is the swing factor — we expect about 56 games, which is priced into his draft value.
