There is currently no available information on whether or not Mitchell will play for the Tigers in their next game, which is Sunday on a neutral court against Marquette in Chicago. "Mark, you know, I think he got cracked pretty good across the across the nose," Mizzou coach Dennis Gates said postgame. "I'm not sure if it was stitches or it was just a nosebleed.
