Sam Mitchell Basketball

Mitchell played college basketball at Mercer University for four seasons, and scored nearly 2,000 points, becoming the leading scorer in Bears history.Mitchell did not commence play in the NBA after being drafted and until joining1989 expansion team, the Minnesota Timberwolves, in their inaugural season.

Prior to his NBA career, he spent three seasons in the Continental BasketballAssociation, playing for the Wisconsin Flyers and Rapid City Thrillers, and in theFrench Ligue Nationale de Basketball team of Montpellier for the end of the 1987-88 and the whole 1988-89 season

Mitchell started his NBA career, first spending three seasons with the timberwolves. During his playing days in  Minneapolis, he scored a career-high 37 points against the  Philadelphia  76ers on February 3, 1991.

On  September  8, 1992,  he was traded  along with point  guard Pooh Richardson to the Indiana  Pacers in exchange for small forward Chuck Person  and point guard  Micheal Williams. Mitchell ranks second in  Wolves’  history in points,  steals,  and minutes played, and is third in total rebounds.

Sam Mitchell Timberwolves

After an up-and-down season running a ridiculously young Timberwolves team as interim head coach in 2015-16, Mitchell was let go as interim head coach in the hours following the team’s end to a 29-53 season.

For the second time in this offseason, Mitchell is taking issue with the way he was moved to the side by Wolves owner Glen Taylor, in eventual favor of 2010 NBA Coach of the Year Tom Thibodeau.

Mitchell, the 2007 NBA Coach of the Year, discussed as much with Darren “Doogie” Wolfson at ESPN Radio recently. Thanks to Pro Basketball Talk’s Dan Feldman for the transcription.

Sam Mitchell NBA

On March 30, 2007, Mitchell got his 100th win as NBA coach when the Raptors defeated the  Washington  Wizards at the Verizon Center. Mitchell,  who witnessed  his team struggle  with rebuilding in his first years as coach,  also led the  Toronto Raptors to  their first division  title in franchise history as the team won the  Atlantic  Division in the  NBA’s  Eastern Conference in the2006-07 season.

On December 3, 2008, after leading the Raptors to a disappointing 8-9 start to the 2008-09  season,  Mitchell was relieved of his duties as the team’s head coach. Assistant coach Jay Triano took over the position of interim head coach of the raptors, which later made him the first foreign-born player to coach a team in the  NBA.

For the rest of the season, Mitchell became the official head coach, although he would still be treated as an interim coach. During his  sole season  coaching  the  Timberwolves, he would coach them to the fifth-worst record in the league with a 29-53 record.

On April 13, 2016, Mitchell was relieved of his interim head coaching duties as the coach of the Timberwolves after the last game of the season, allowing them to look for a permanent coach.
