Restricted free agent Davion Mitchell plans to sign a two-year, $24 million contract to remain with the Miami Heat, ESPN reported on Saturday.

The Heat previously extended an $8.7 million qualifying offer to Mitchell for the upcoming season.

Mitchell, who turns 27 on Sept. 5, averaged 10.3 points and 5.3 assists and shot a robust 50.4 percent from the floor in 30 games (15 starts) with the Heat after being acquired as part of the multi-team trade that sent Jimmy Butler to the Golden State Warriors.

Mitchell has contributed 7.6 points and 3.3 assists in 301 career games (69 starts) with the Sacramento Kings, Toronto Raptors and Heat. The guard was selected by the Kings with the ninth overall pick of the 2021 NBA Draft.
