Davion Mitchell joined the Miami Heat at the trade deadline last season and became Miami's most reliable point guard over the final 30 games. Mitchell, best known for his defense, averaged 10.3 points and 5.

Davion Mitchell is coming back to the Miami Heat on a two-year contract worth $24 million, a person familiar with the negotiations said Saturday.

Mitchell will now have an opportunity to try to continue that impressive stretch in a Heat uniform, agreeing to a new deal worth $24 million over two seasons to return to Miami, league sources confirmed to the Miami Herald on Saturday. The contract does not include any options, with the money fully guaranteed.
