NEW DELHI: Atlanta Hawks have decided to waive veteran guard Patty Mills, according to reports from multiple media outlets on Thursday. The 35-year-old guard has seen limited action this season, averaging 2.7 points, 1.1 rebounds, and 10.6 minutes in 19 games coming off the bench. Mills has recorded shooting percentages of 37.3 percent from the floor and 38.2 percent from beyond the arc.
Over the course of his extensive NBA career, spanning 879 games with 107 starts, Patty Mills has established himself as a reliable and seasoned player.
Having played for the Portland Trail Blazers, San Antonio Spurs, Brooklyn Nets, and most recently the Atlanta Hawks, Mills boasts career averages of 8.9 points and 2.2 assists.
Mills notably secured an NBA championship with the San Antonio Spurs in 2014, contributing to the team's success with his skillful play and valuable experience.
The decision to waive Mills comes amidst the Hawks' strategic considerations for their roster and future plans. While the veteran guard's current statistics may not reflect the peak of his career, his seasoned presence and championship-winning experience could attract interest from other teams looking to bolster their roster for the remainder of the season.
