The Cavaliers fell behind in each of the first two quarters but Mitchell scored 23 points in the second half to lift the visiting Cavaliers to a 118-94 victory.
The shooting guard finished with eight assists and seven rebounds.
“Everybody did their job,” Mitchell said.
“We were extremely confident, even after game one. Understanding that we had some things we could adjust.
“Tonight we executed very well, but at the end of the day, it’s one win. We’ll continue to build upon it. Take care of business at home and protect home court.”
Mitchell also scored a game-high 33 points in game one but Boston earned a 120-95 victory.
