Charlotte's second overall pick in 2023 is already considered one of the best young players the game has to offer.
Charlotte Hornets guard/wing Brandon Miller is trending toward becoming one of the NBA's best players after just one season in the league.
As a rookie, Miller averaged 17.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game while shooting at an impressive split of 44%/37.3%/82.7%. If it weren't for Chet Holmgren missing his true rookie year and being in the same draft class as a generational talent in Victor Wembanyama, Miller would have won the Rookie of the Year award with ease. A third place finish behind those two though is not a bad consolation.
The Athletic recently did an interesting article, doing a fantasy draft of sorts selecting players aged 21 and under . Miller was the fourth overall pick in this creative draft by Kelly Iko. He was selected behind Wembanyama, Paolo Banchero, and Alperen Şengün. "I’m building my team like I would on NBA 2K, and I need an athletic, three-level wing scorer who can play off of Şengün. Enter Miller, who by all accounts is a better defender than the public gives him credit for, all while being a bona fide shooter and multifaceted offensive weapon. The Hornets have been stuck in neutral for a few seasons, but with a new regime in place, there’s no reason why the 6-foot-9 phenom shouldn’t be a huge part of that turnaround project.
