OKLAHOMA CITY — The Oklahoma City Thunder signed rookie second-round draft pick Ajay Mitchell to a multi-year contract on Thursday. Mitchell, a guard from Belgium who played in college UC-Santa Barbara, originally signed a two-way contract last July. Terms of the new agreement were not released.

Mitchell hasn't played a game for the Thunder since undergoing a procedure on his right big toe in January, but that didn't stop the team from securing his future by inking him to a two-year deal.
