Hawks To Waive Patty Mills; Convert Trent Forrest

Feb 29, 2024 9:16 AM

The Atlanta Hawks are waiving guard Patty Mills. The Hawks acquired Mills from the Oklahoma City Thunder, after the Thunder had acquired Mills from the Brooklyn Nets in a salary-clearing trade.

In a limited role with Atlanta, Mills has averaged 2.7 points in 10.6 minutes per game across 19 appearances.

With the open roster sport, the Hawks will convert Trent Forrest from his two-way deal to a standard contract. Forrest maximized his allowed 50 NBA games while on his two-way contract recently. He's been ineligible to play since.

Forrest has appeared in 43 games with Atlanta while on two-way contracts each of the last two seasons.

The Memphis Grizzlies signing Jordan Goodwin to a two-way contract. To make room for Goodwin, the Grizzlies are going to waive Jacob Gilyard from his two-way deal.

Gilyard has played well for Memphis, but he's maximized his allowable games on his two-way deal. Two-way players are only allowed to be active for up to 50 NBA games per season. Gilyard averaged 4.7 points and 3.5 assists, while shooting 42.5% on three-pointers in 37 games for the Grizzlies this season.

Goodwin just completed a 10-day deal with the Grizzlies. Goodwin should have 15 available NBA games on a prorated NBA deal.
