Mitch McCarron is a retired Australian professional basketball player who currently serves as the General Manager of Player Relations and Engagement for the Australian Basketball Players’ Association (ABPA). Despite retiring from full-time professional basketball in May 2025 due to persistent injuries, he continues to play at a semi-professional level for the Eltham Wildcats in the NBL1 South competition.

In 2010, McCarron attended the Australian Institute of Sport. He played college basketball in the United States for Metropolitan State University of Denver (Metro State) between 2012 and 2015. During his three seasons with the Roadrunners, he led the team to back to back NCAA Division II Final Four appearances, including a runner-up finish in 2013. He averaged 16.3 points and 6.7 rebounds for his career and in 2015 was named NABC Player of the Year.

Following college, McCarron played one season for Palencia Baloncesto of Spain's Second Division. He signed a two-year deal with the Cairns Taipans in his native Australia on 13 May 2016. After a stint with Petrol Olimpija following the 2017–18 NBL season, McCarron signed a three-year deal with Melbourne United on 8 June 2018. On 28 February 2019, he signed with the Southland Sharks for the 2019 New Zealand NBL season. He left the Sharks mid-season due to a lingering knee complaint.
