Most People Have No Idea It’s Happening: Brandon Miller
Now, the Hornets opted for Miller instead of the highly-touted Scoot Henderson. And this caused quite a stir among fans and analysts alike. Now, you might be wondering, Will the Hornets forever be haunted by their decision to select Brandon Miller with that coveted second-overall pick?
Trust me, the jury is still out on this one. It’s a question that hangs in the air, waiting for time to reveal its verdict. Almost every draft expert out there was singing praises for Scoot, labelling him as the better prospect. And maybe the Hornets thought the same.
You see, the Hornets already have LaMelo Ball, a ball-dominant point guard. So, instead of doubling down on a similar playstyle, Charlotte rolled the dice and opted for a scoring forward in Miller. It is a calculated gamble, a massive wager. But will it pay off?
During Miller’s time at the University of Alabama, he made quite a name for himself. Averaging 18.8 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game, he proved that he’s got the skills to make an impact on the court. He was crowned the Most Valuable Player of the 2023 Southeastern Conference tournament, not to mention being named a second-team All-American.

The Reality Of Brandon Miller Going Second Overall…
The Untold Story of Brandon Miller
24 Comments
The bigger picture is Miller has been struggling even though he has had one or two bright games. He's great yes but this draft class was stacked. I'm sure a lot of rookies selected below him will perform better than him….
Oh please. He’s 6’9 athletic sharp shooter. Other guy little compact dime a dozen type
IS THIS HOOP REPORTS????
Brandon been playing great You a don’t know what you talking about at all have you been watching his first game he went 5/11fg 3pt/3/6 with 18pts 5rebs his second game went 2/4 that’s 50 percent FG. Also out played Victor head to head and last game just went off for 26pts. Stop it
Scoot hurt and shot 29 percent from 3 last year. Scoot shot under 80 percent from free throw. Scoot averaged less than Bouknight in the G league do your research first. Scoot also shot 5/13 his first summer league game
He'll be fine
he has been fine and going with Scoot wouldve been absolutely braindead, tf are you doing wanting 2 ball dominated players on the court for? oh thats right Scoot wouldnt even get to play period unless LaMelo gets injured again because there is absolutely no way in hell they bench LaMelo for Scoot. come on, its like people dont think ffs. Miller just fits in so much better.
The way we analyze without taking certain variables into context is amazing.
This was a kid who went through off court issues that would bog down a lesser mind. Then he's unable to even prep for either combine or private workouts for a few months because he was down with a viral infection. that made him lose a lot of weight.
Now having not played basketball in months in and obviously rusty from it, he's immediately analyzed from the same prism as other players who've been putting in months of work before the Summer league. He himself just had a few private predraft sessions as his own tune up.
He was still able to score 18 points in his first game. His last game he dropped 26 points, with 6 rebounds against the Blazers, but STILL haters had something to say.
Until his conditioning peaks to the same level as his peers I have to say the kid has done tremendously well. For me, what I look out for is basketball IQ and feel for the game. B Miller has shown that in spades. Best part is he's playing with older players who are going about with a "I gotta get mine," attitude to play and he's still able to do things despite of that.
The "Scoot Wagon" continues. A chiseled body, athletic ability, big hair, and his name is Scoot. He can't lose with that combination. One mixed tape and one great performance against Wemby and he's the next MJ. Other than that most followers have never even seen him play. Can't wait for him to live up to the hype.
I wanted the hornets to draft scoot but that was before melo signed his extension, I’m good with miller if lamelo staying bc they have a higher ceiling.
So, out of top 3 picks, Miller had the best opening performance.
Miller slept on bad us hornets gone wake em uppp
Scoot, can never stay healthy. The past 2 years he has avg 20 games playing in the g league. Scoot has never taken his g league team to anything and never played for anyone other than his draft stock.
Same happened to mark Williams now look at em bossed uo same for miller he gone be a problem
How many points did Scoot have for his momentum in his other games. Scoot is also a project, what has Scoot accomplished in his 2 years in G league or in the one game he played in summer league then shut it down before playing Wemby or Brandon. I watched Scoot 1st game where did Scoot get hurt.
Crappy video, listing millers stats yet ignoring his last game to set a narrative, you should be ashamed of yourself
Brandon Miller is gonna be something special in years to come if he keeps improving his game. And hopefully he will make that wench Malika Andrews choke on her words of crimes!
I hate when people make dumb statements about Hornets drafting. Giannis was a 15th pick, We had Kemba and didn't draft Dame. 13 other teams passed on Giannis but we gone single out Charlotte 😂😂😂
Klay, Jimmy and Kawhi was passed on by a lot of teams. But idiots single out Charlotte 😂😂😂
Brandon Miller is a great shooter
Brandon Miller did not take the summer league seriously.. 😂😂
Both guys worked out in front of the goat MJ.. pretty sure MJ knoes talent
Brandon Miller is the best player in the NBA
bm is gonna be awesome ❤
