O'Neale then said he wanted to jump into the mix and received the invite from Mitchell:
Mitchell then posted the Twitch stream:
Mitchell is in self-quarantine after he was diagnosed with COVID-19. He is one of at least 14 NBA players to have a confirmed positive case, per Colin Ward-Henninger and Jack Maloney of CBS Sports.
The third-year pro and one-time All-Star spoke with Good Morning America's Robin Roberts about his experience with COVID-19, noting his self-quarantine status and that he's playing video games to help pass the time.
The Jazz guard recently participated in a Call of Duty tournament held by SLAM, which featured two teams in a best-of-seven series. Mitchell's six-man team lost 4-3 after nearly coming back from a 3-0 deficit.
The NBA suspended play on Wednesday, March 11, after Mitchell's teammate, center Rudy Gobert, tested positive for COVID-19. There is no timetable for its return, but Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban told WFAA that he believed games could begin again by mid-May.
