Tiffany Mitchell (born September 23, 1994) is an American professional basketball player for the Indiana Fever of the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA). She went to Providence Day School. After concluding her collegiate career at the University of South Carolina, she was selected ninth overall at the 2016 WNBA Draft on April 14, 2016. She graduated in May 2016 with a B.S. in Retail Management.

As a member of Dawn Staley's Gamecocks, she was a two-time SEC Player of the Year award winner (2014–2015). A threat on both the offensive & defensive ends of the court, she has drawn comparisons to Dwyane Wade for her ability to score and create her own shot in tough match-ups.

Mitchell was initiated as a member of the Theta Gamma chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority.
