NBA: Atlanta Hawks at Golden State Warriors

According to a report from Sham Charania of The Athletic and Stadium, 14-year point guard Patty Mills is set to be waived in short order by the Atlanta Hawks.

Mills came to Atlanta this summer in a trade that sent Usman Garuba and TyTy Washington Jr. among other pieces out as part of a series of moves following the John Collins trade to Utah. Patty Mills was a deep reserve point guard for the Hawks in 2023-24, seeing action in just 19 games for under 11 minutes a contest. But his main worth to the team was bringing the presence of a championship-winning veteran into the locker room to help along the young players on the roster, on and off the court.

With 2023 first-round pick Kobe Bufkin recently supplanting his spot in the rotation, Mills will have a chance seek other opportunities around the league. The move opens up a roster spot, and with Trent Forrest ineligible to exceed the 50 NBA games for which he’s been active on his Two-Way contract, it now seems like a standard deal for Forrest will follow.
