Portland Trail Blazers forward Ruben Patterson, on the inactive list after complaining about his playing time, will return to the team, coach Nate McMillan said Friday.
Patterson met with McMillan and Blazers management on Thursday, and Patterson later agreed to conditions for his return.
McMillan wouldn't elaborate, but did say the agreement with Patterson had to do with "what is best for this team."
"Come in, come to work, whatever the assignment is -- try and make it work," McMillan said.
