Patty Mills has been a reliable player for the Australian national basketball team and always proved one of the best players in the world when playing in the basketball World Cup. Mills, along with Dennis Schroder, have been considerably undervalued in the NBA; the coaches have never seemed to respect their games when they have been in the NBA. Dennis Schroder of course has had a much larger role than Patty Mills, but comparatively speaking, Schroder could do a lot more with the ball than the stats he has averaged.

If Patty Mills were to be given playoff minutes, particularly if Terry Rozier were to miss full games due to injury, I’m sure he would be a reliable player with those minutes. Mills not only is clutch, but he’s composed and would share the ball and choose the right times to drive to the basket himself et cetera.
