Patty Mills – Brooklyn Nets
After listing some obvious choices, let’s get into some of the cheaper signings that could end up being marquee signings for numerous teams.
Given the makeup of the Brooklyn Nets with Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and James Harden, they are strapped with cap space. Nevertheless, after bringing back Blake Griffin and Bruce Brown, the Nets were able to win the Patty Mills sweepstakes.
There were a few notable teams showing interest in Mills, but the long-time backup of the Spurs chose to take his talents to Brooklyn.
Mills fills multiple needs for the Nets, including the backup point guard role to Irving, and having someone on the bench that can shoot the ball, especially after trading Landry Shamet to the Suns.
