Tony Mitchell

Recommended Posts

It'll be an interesting off-season in Motown and I'm curious to watch the impact it has on TMitch.

- Dumars stepping down as GM

- a new coach/staff coming in

- a possible overhauling of the roster to clear the current log jam on the front line with Drummond (staying put), Josh Smith (being shopped in trades), and Greg Monroe (restricted free agent)

TMitch didn't seem to get time on the wing while in the Dleague with the Fort Wayne Mad Ants so it appears his future is as a PF. Do Smith or Monroe go elsewhere opening up room in the rotation? Does TMitch get thrown into a trade as part of the roster overhaul?

From a distance it's easy to hope he would've just spent more time playing with Fort Wayne in the Dleague since his nightly box score was continually "DNP-CD" but I'll choose to trust that the Pistons saw that his development was being helped most by being around the NBA squad.

If Tony gets released, its almost going to be a "tryout" or "pro day" situation for him because there isn't much video of him with Detroit. He would have to visit teams and have a workout and physical.

I can't see him getting released because his $800k contract next year is fully guaranteed and counts fully against the cap.
