Leonard miller

Draft Notes

Miller has been one of the fastest rising players in his class and is someone to keep an eye on for the 2023 NBA draft. After declaring in 2022 Miller decided to withdraw his name and join the G League Ignite.

He’s a very long, wiry and mobile 6-10 forward who handles the ball well, has a ton of confidence in his shot and an overall versatile skill-set. Can drive the ball with either hand is very crafty with the dribble, especially for someone his size. He’s a lefty but can finish with either hand.

Over the past year Miller has transformed his game from being a somewhat wild ball-handling wing to a hard-nosed big forward who rebounds, defends and does all the dirty work. This transformation has been a big sucess and gives him clear value at the NBA level.

Miller doesn’t have a very good looking jump shot but can hit the 3 on occasion and should improve in this area over the coming years.
