#51 Danny Mills - Perth Wildcats GM & "The Process"

The Benas Podcast

"Danny":

Danny is a long time friend of mine and currently the GM of the Perth Wildcats, representing the NBL proudly.

Danny has a very colorful background across the world, from playing in Australia to Oregon Tech in the US as well as the Irish National Team to being the video coordinator for the Bakersfield Jam and working in Europe as the International Scout of the Philadelphia 76ers after briefly coaching in Italy. Danny later moved to the US to become the Director of Scouting for Philadelphia before transitioning back to his hometown in Perth as the GM of his hometown team, Perth Wildcats.

Today we had a wide array of topics that ranged from his experience in the NBA, what he took away from his time at Philadelphia, the lessons he learned and what he can apply not only from his roles but also from other sports to his team in Perth. We also veered off and talked about how he balances family & work and what his philosophy in Perth is all about.
