On Miller:
A very good offensive player who can score lots of points. Has a quick-r eleased outside shot and attacka the rim well thanks to great leaping ability and good 1-vs-1 skills. His good ball handling and court vision allow him to play some time at the point. Has yet upside, and has shown improvements in each of his college seasons.
