Men's Basketball Announces The Hiring of Devin Mitchell

NEW ORLEANS – Tulane men's basketball head coach Ron Hunter announced the hiring of Devin Mitchell as the assistant director of player development on Wednesday.

"We are excited to have Devin join our staff this season," Hunter said. "Not only was he a great athlete, but he really understands the culture we have and will be a great asset to our program as it moves forward."

Mitchell played for Hunter and his staff at Georgia State from 2015-19. As a senior he earned All-Sun Belt Preseason Second Team honors before averaging 12.2 points and 1.9 rebounds per game while shooting 43.3 percent from 3-point range, ranked No. 1 in the Sun Belt and No. 14 in the NCAA. Mitchell played a key role for Georgia State as they made their way to the NCAA tournament in the 2018-19 season.

During the 2017-18 season he was named to the All-Sun Belt Third Team after averaging 12.0 points and 2.5 rebounds per game while shooting 44.6 percent from the floor and 44.7 percent from 3-point range.

Mitchell saw limited minutes his first two seasons at Georgia State after he transferred from Alabama.

"Devin was with us when we made it to the NCAA tournament and I am confident he can use what he learned during that season here at Tulane," Hunter said.

The Lawrenceville, Georgia native graduated with a degree in journalism.
