Patty Mills was a feel-good story on a team full of them last season in San Antonio. Serge Ibaka Raptors Jersey . The Australian guard had a breakout year, rededicating himself to conditioning and flourishing in a Spurs system that relied upon him for offensive scoring punch off the bench. After averaging 10.2 points and helping the Spurs win the championship, Mills figured to cash in on the open market. But then it was revealed that he would be out for six months or more due to a torn rotator cuff in his right shoulder, and suddenly his future was uncertain. The injury did nothing to deter the Spurs, who re-signed him on Saturday. The team did not disclose the terms of the deal, but the San Antonio Express-News previously reported that it was a three-year contract. The 25-year-old Mills had trouble sticking in the NBA at the start of his career. He played in 74 games over two seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers and 16 more with the Spurs in 2011-12. Spurs coach Gregg Popovich and his accomplished staff demanded that Mills get into better shape, and he took that to heart. He blossomed this season, playing in a career-high 81 games and averaging a career-high 18.9 minutes per game during the regular season. When starting point guard Tony Parker missed 14 games due to injury and maintenance, Mills was one of the key fill-ins that helped keep them motoring right along to an NBA-best 62 wins. In the last two games of the NBA Finals, Mills combined to score 31 points and hit 9 of 14 3-pointers to help the Spurs clinch the franchises fifth title. The Spurs also signed first-round draft pick Kyle Anderson to his rookie contract on Saturday.

PETERSBURG, Fla. -- One big swing by Mike Carp helped the Boston Red Sox extend their commanding lead in the AL East. Carp connected for a pinch-hit grand slam in the 10th inning and the Red Sox beat the Tampa Bay Rays 7-3 on Wednesday night. "Come in and do what he did, you only see that in the movies," Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz said. "That guy is a good hitter. One day hes going to get plenty of at-bats. He reminds me of myself when I first started. Dont get to play too much, but with a good swing." Boston has a season-high 9 1/2-game advantage over second-place Tampa Bay in the division race. Carp sent a drive over the centre-field fence on the first pitch from Roberto Hernandez. It was the first pinch-hit grand slam for Boston since Kevin Millar hit one at Milwaukee on June 7, 2003. "He hung a slider and I did a lot more than I expected to do with it," Carp said. Carp is 5 for 17 with two homers and nine RBIs as a pinch hitter this year. Boston has seven pinch-hit homers overall on the season. "Mike has been so productive in that role," Red Sox manager John Farrell said. "To sit there for nearly four hours and come up and swing at the first pitch you see for a grand slam, thats pretty remarkable." Dustin Pedroia opened the 10th with a walk against Joel Peralta (2-7) and went to second on Shane Victorinos bunt. After Ortiz was intentionally walked, Hernandez replaced Peralta and walked Mike Napoli on four pitches before Carp went deep for his ninth homer.

The Rays got one run back in the third on David DeJesus RBI double. Red Sox shortstop Stephen Drew made a strong defensive play later in the inning with two outs and the bases loaded when he drove to his right to field Desmond Jennings grounder and then throw out Matt Joyce at second base. "An awesome play ... what a play," Red Sox starter Ryan Dempster said. Dempster, who gave up one run, four hits and five walks in five innings, struck out Jennings to leave the bases loaded in the fifth. "You can slice and dice it, but we had chances to score way more than three runs tonight and didnt do that," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. Cobb allowed three runs and seven hits over 5 2-3 innings. Tampa Bay just missed turning a triple play in the sixth. With runners on first and second, Longoria leaped to grab Will Middlebrooks high-hopper near the line and then landed on the third-base bag. Longoria threw out Drew at second, but Middlebrooks just beat the ensuing throw to first.
