Patty Mills returning to Nets on a 2-year $14.5 million deal in free agency
While the Brooklyn Nets are still dealing with the fallout of the Kevin Durant news of him requesting a trade, the Nets did make a move in free agency on Thursday at the opening.
They will bring back Patty Mills on a 2-year $14.5 million deal, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, and he will be bringing his sharpshooting back to Brooklyn. He averaged 11.4 points and 2.3 assists in 81 games, with 48 starts, and he also shot 40% from deep on 7.0 attempts. He is a very good floor spacer for the Nets for whoever is going to be on the roster when opening night rolls around in October.

Whether Mills will be spacing the floor for both Durant and Kyrie Irving remains to be seen, but either way, the return of Mills is a very good addition to whatever Brooklyn wants to do in their future. He is a good veteran, he works hard, and he is a guy who brings veteran experience to a Nets team in need of it.
