Patty Mills News
The Atlanta Hawks have waived veteran guard Patty Mills. The 35-year-old leaves the team after averaging just 10.6 minutes of action across 19 games in 2023-24. The team made the move to covert Trent Forrest's two-way contract into a standard deal. Forrest, who's playing his fourth year in the league, has had a similar role to Mills, featuring in 20 games and averaging 10.5 minutes, but he's a much younger player and could offer a lot more to the team going forward. However, Forrest has yet to make an impact in the NBA, with his career averages standing at 2.8 points and 1.7 assists.
According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, OKC traded guard Patty Mills to Atlanta on Saturday. In exchange, the Thunder will receive Rudy Gay, Usman Garuba, TyTy Washington Jr., and a second-round pick. Mills, who has been traded three times in the last 10 days, averaged 6.2 points in 40 games with the Nets last season. However, the 34-year-old may not remain in Atlanta, considering he's on an attractive $6.8 million expiring contract. At any rate, Mills' role will be contingent on where he eventually ends up. While he may get some chances to produce in 2023-24, he likely won't be a consistent fantasy contributor.
Newly acquired Patty Mills is expected to quickly move on from Houston, with the Rockets looking to use him in a sign-and-trade deal for Dillon Brooks. Mills was picked up Saturday from the Brooklyn Nets, where he played very sparingly last season, averaging 6.2 points in 14.2 minutes while logging only 40 appearances. He'll provide veteran presence and three-point shooting wherever he eventually lands, but the days of Mills being a fantasy asset appear to be behind us.
Brooklyn Nets guard Patty Mills turned back the clock a little bit on Thursday night despite the five-point loss to the Eastern Conference-leading Milwaukee Bucks. The 34-year-old Aussie posted 21 points, seven rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one block on 8-for-16 shooting while adding five made threes. This was the second-highest minutes he received in a game this season and delivered his second-highest point total to go along with it. He's still hard to trust in any fantasy format for the playoffs unless the Nets decide to go full tank mode at some point.
