Patty Mills has been added to Australia's national team roster for the Oceania Championship.

Australia needed Mills following the ACL tear suffered by Dante Exum.

Mills had initially been left off the roster after the San Antonio Spurs asked him to sit out a series of warmup games.

“I’m looking forward to joining my Boomers teammates for this very important qualification series against New Zealand,” Mills said via statement. “Playing for my country has always been an honor for me. Obviously my shoulder injury last year meant that I had to continue intensive rehab and quality training over the past few months. I’ve done that and will be ready for the Oceania Championships.”
