“I've always been an ambassador for Australians, non-Indigenous Austral...” — Patty Mills Quote

I've always been an ambassador for Australians, non-Indigenous Australians and Indigenous Australians... I let people know about who I am and that I'm not just a basketballer, I'm a person who comes from a very rich heritage.

I am ecstatic and filled with immense pride to have the world's most renowned professional basketball league join forces with IBA - the work we are going to do together will make a real impact to the lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youths.

As a proud Indigenous man I have a lot of things that are symbolic and have a lot of meaning to me.

There's a part of me that's very stereotypically Australian, with the lingo, or for lack of a better way of putting it, the way white Australians would speak. And then, Oh, that's not all I am.

I'm a Prince of Wales Trust ambassador, so I'm all about giving youth an education, a voice and a chance to not take the wrong road.

It'd be nice if people consider me somewhat of an ambassador.

I am saddened to hear of the passing of William 'Bill' J. Hughes, former U.S. Representative and Ambassador. Mr. Hughes has fought for South Jersey for decades and it is an honor to have known him and followed in his footsteps. South Jersey and the world are better for having had him.

And the beauty, me being a dance ambassador, is - what I find a lot of pride in is how inclusive dance is and that it doesn't judge based on any of the past. It kind of just wholeheartedly welcomes people in.
