Free-agent guard Patty Mills is planning to sign with the Miami Heat. Mills last appeared in game action for the Atlanta Hawks on Feb. 7 before being waived, and he's set to join the 34-26 Heat and help their playoff push. The 35-year-old sharpshooter isn't going to make a big fantasy impact, however, chipping in a mere 2.7 points and 0.7 three-pointers while shooting 38.2% from beyond the arc in 10.9 minutes per game for the Hawks during his 14th season. After losing veteran Kyle Lowry in the ...

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...

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 ...

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 ...

Brooklyn Nets point guard Patty Mills (illness) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Raptors due to a non-COVID illness. Mills has been sparingly used off the bench this season with Edmond Sumner and Seth Curry largely vaulting him on the depth chart; the veteran has averaged just 5.5 PPG, his lowest scoring output in a decade. Without Mills in the mix, Sumner and Cam Thomas could see some added backcourt run. The next chance for the 34-year-old to return comes Sunday vs. ...

Free-agent guard Patty Mills agreed to a two-year, $14.5 million deal to return to Brooklyn on Thursday night. The 33-year-old was a pivotal piece of the Nets' rotation last season, primarily with Kyrie Irving out for most of it, averaging 11.4 points and 2.3 assists while shooting 40.0% from deep. With Irving potentially on his way out of Brooklyn, Mills has a chance to carve out a role in the starting lineup. However, even if the veteran doesn't start, he should continue to get a consistent ...

Brooklyn Nets guard Patty Mills has decided to decline his player option and enter free agency. Last season, Mills averaged 2.8 three-pointers while playing nearly 29 minutes per game. He could draw plenty of interest in free agency, but is unlikely to find a starting spot anywhere. Mills is really only useful for his ability from beyond the arc, but can still be a decent contributor off the bench. Honestly, his fantasy value should be about the same on any team he lands.

Upcoming free-agent guard Patty Mills remains undecided about his future in Brooklyn. He has a player option, which if exercised, would pay him $6.2 million in 2022-23. However, it appears his decision may be based on the future of Kyrie Irving, who reportedly caused moral issues in the locker room after refusing to receive a COVID-19 vaccine. While Mills wasn't a consistent fantasy presence, he averaged 13.1 points and shot 37.5% from behind the arc throughout 48 appearances in the starting ...
