Australia exited the tournament following a heartbreaking defeat to Spain, although Patty Mills put on a show during another excellent individual performance. The San Antonio Spurs guard has been among the World Cup's best performers, and for the second time in three games - Mills managed to reach 30 points.

After recording 30 points against France, Mills bettered his total with 34 and connected with 11 of his 25 attempts from the field. It wasn't all good for Mills as he committed seven turnovers, however, the 31-year-old never stopped as he attempted to deliver an unlikely Finals berth for the Australian's.

Mills will now finish the competition leading in points per game (23.9), and the point guard has a great shot at being named tournament MVP.
