BACKGROUND
Mother is Carline. Youngest of four brothers, including Emanuel, who plays at
TCU and is a future NBA Draft prospect in his
own right. Miller grew up in the Toronto suburbs with his family. Really
picked up basketball when he was a teenager and started
training heavily. Traveled on buses for multiple hours per day to get to his
first prep school. Moved around a lot to try to find the
right spot for him to keep developing. He started at Thornlea, and then moved
to continue his training at Wasatch Academy in
Utah. Miller was around 6-foot-6 and then started growing over the course of
the next year to about 6-foot-9 or so. Did not play a
lot for a Wasatch team loaded with upperclassmen. Transferred down to Florida
and went to Victory Rock but suffered a broken
right wrist that required surgery. Decided to do a post-graduate year at Fort
Erie Prep back in Canada where he played for longtime
family friend Charles Hantoumakos. It was there that Miller finally broke out
and thrived. He was dominant and picked up
scholarship offers around the country. Was invited to Nike Hoop Summit that
year and impressed evaluators. Decided to declare
for the 2022 NBA Draft but ended up withdrawing to get more experience.
Decided instead to commit to the G League Ignite,
where Miller thrived again after some adjustment. By the end of the season,
he was one of the best players on a nightly basis as a
ballhandling big forward who could lead the break and live at the rim. Was
automatically eligible for the 2023 NBA Draft and was
invited to the 2023 NBA Draft Combine. Miller is a very high-level mixture of
competitive, intellectually curious and hard-working.
Every reason to believe he will get the most out of his ceiling long term.
原先身高约6-6左右,抽高到6-9甚至现在有6-10的数据,去年宣布参加 2022 年 NBA 选
秀,但最终决定退出转而投身G League Ignite获得更多经验。
STRENGTHS
Miller has a terrific intersection of skill level and size. Measured 6-foot-9
1/2 without shoes with a 7-foot-2 wingspan and a strong
215-pound frame. Elite size for a player who can handle the ball, make plays
and get out on the break. Strange blend of athletic
traits. Constantly lives on the edge of being off-balance where it looks like
his body is moving in different directions at the same
time. However, he’s clearly confident and comfortable within his own
movements, which means he’s able to get to his spots.
Great body control and takes bumps well, displaying the fact that his balance
is quite good despite how it seems. Very strong.
Tops that off by playing hard all the time. Aggressive player who uses his
athleticism to make an impact all over the court both
as a leaper and on the ground. Seems to get off the floor quickly as a
leaper. Quick reactions. All of this leads to him being a very
real mismatch threat in a lot of different situations.
Miller裸足6-91/2且拥有7-2臂展跟215磅的体型,菁英级别的身材且拥有控球、持球进攻
跟突破等技术,突破时身板与脚步常常看起来分别往不同方向移动,但是他对於自己的动
作充满自信且出色的身体控制能力能够承受碰撞,这表示他的身体平衡能力相当好,最重
要的是Miller一直非常努力在打球,积极进取的球员,利用自己的运动能力在场上造成影
响,有不错的弹速且飞快的反应速度,这些条件都使他在场上可以成为各种mismatch的大
麻烦。
He particularly excels out on the break. Tremendous grab-and-go player out in
transition. Averaged over 10 rebounds per game
this past season in the G League, many of which started instant offense down
the floor. Very long strides. Covers ground quickly.
Kind of a freight train out in space. Uses that ability to understand space
and how to maneuver within it well. Changes direction
well and acts as a heat-seeking missile to try to find the man at the basket’
s body. Will initiate contact to create that little bit of
space, maintain that balance and power up through contact. Miller’s strength
is ridiculous for his size. He’s incredibly strong
and physical, and the strength looks like it will continue to get better as
he ages.
Miller的突破能力尤其出色,在进攻转换时能够抄截一条龙,在上季G联盟场均超过十
个篮板,快攻时步幅非常大能够快速覆盖整个球场,并且能够在对抗时找到一点空间,
同时保持平衡依靠着强大的力量对抗,Miller的力量相对於他的身材是非常惊人的,
而且体能方面随着年纪增长还有可能不断增强。
It’s hard to overemphasize how terrific Miller’s finishing acumen is. He
has superb touch. Because of his ball skills, he’s very
versatile in the actions in which he can be used. Has an enormous bag of
tricks on the interior. Great hand-eye coordination and
can finish above the rim when rolling out of ball screens and rim running as
a cutter. Can also leap off two feet out of the dunker
spot and finish. Made 66.7 percent of his shots at the rim in total and 61.3
in half-court settings. Given some of the degree of
difficulty on some of those, impressive numbers. Really good instincts for
when to time his cut out of the dunker spot, and when
to time his roll because of his ability to put the ball on the deck out of
short-roll scenarios. But more importantly, can also attack
in straight lines in the half court. Will get the ball in the mid-post and
try to attack in a straight line. Can still go through contact and get all
the way to the rim with his Euro steps or deceleration techniques. But where
the mismatch situations really come
in is when he’s matched up against a big on the perimeter. He’s good at
getting his hips lower than them and driving by with a
smart first step, then getting all the way to the rim. Not wildly explosive
but very good at finding those angles.
Miller的终结能力出色,他有非常好的终结手感,他有多样的技巧且出色的手眼协调能力
,当球滚出篮框时可以立即空切在篮框上方完成补篮得分,Miller在篮下投篮命中率66
.7%,半场投篮命中率61.3%,对於何时进入或退出Dunker spot的直觉判断优秀,并且有
能力在半场作战时直线进攻篮下,透过欧洲步或是变速的技术冲框,当遇到护框大个子时
,Miller习惯低位让臀部低於对手且用从聪明的第一步进攻篮框,虽然爆发力不够好,但
是很能够在篮下找到各种角度进球。
The blend of physical traits allows Miller to be a terrific finisher. Those
weird movements allow him to throw off rim protectors
and avoid contact, creating finishing angles others can’t really find. Loves
to Euro step or crossover and get back to his right
hand. Can change direction without having to change speed with his handle at
his size. Makes them with either hand as well.
Has that rare blend of touch at the basket. Throws up some ridiculous,
different shots at the rim that go in. Despite being a lefty,
he can get to the right-handed floater and knock them down.
特殊的运动天赋让Miller成为一个出色的终结手,靠着那些奇特的动作甩开护框对手避免
碰撞,创造其他人无法找到的终结角度,喜欢欧洲步或是Crossover且回到右手终结,
而且在变换方向时不会减速,拥有出色的篮下手感,可以在篮框下完成一些不可思议的终
结,尽管是左撇子,但是Miller也能够用右手抛投吃掉防守者。
I buy him as a passer and playmaker at his size in a secondary role long term
even with the warts right now. Ignite used him
occasionally in some ball screen opportunities as a ballhandler, and I liked
his vision as a playmaker. Hit some smart crosscorner
passes. Numbers don’t jump off the page because Miller wasn’t typically
asked to be utilized in a playmaking role. But
his tape at lower levels really showcased high-level passing vision. Very
good at the jump pass, drawing defenders toward him
then quickly reacting to who is coming. He averaged only 1.6 assists per
game, but much like the rest of the season, he showed
tremendous growth in the second half. Over his last 15 games, he averaged 2.5
assists per game versus 1.5 turnovers.
从长远来看,我认为Miller是一名传球手甚至是次要的playmaker,即使是现在仍然有
缺陷,在点燃队我喜欢Miller偶尔作为控球手展现出的视野,传出一些聪明的对角传球,
数字没办法呈现这个技术,因为Miller通常不会被要求担任大核组织者,但Miller在比较
低层次的联赛确实展现了高水平的传球视野,擅长跳传、吸怪阅读对手动向,他虽然场均
只有1.6次助攻,但是在最後15场比赛,他场均2.5次助攻/失误1.5次。
There are also some real defensive tools I buy into long term. I think he
will be a plus on-ball defender in the NBA. Miller plays
very hard and never gives up on plays. When he has an assignment, he excels
at it. Think the growth he showed on that end this
past season in terms of tools and technique was strong. Defended multiple
position types. Can deal with players from the wing
up to the center position. Can slide and stay in front of wings, but because
he’s so strong, you also can’t go through his chest as
a driver by lowering his shoulder. Walls up and stays in front of his man.
Does so with his arms very high in the air. Can defend
men on the block. Plus, he uses that immense length with an 8-foot-10 1/2
standing reach to be able to contest shots. Had some
moments of navigating off-ball actions well just by being willing to fight.
Has shown some upside with weakside rim rotations.
Averaged about one steal and one block per game.
Miller拥有一些防守技术,我认为他会在NBA成为一个plus的持球防守者,Miller打球非
常拼命而且从来不会放弃任何一个play,当他接到指示时他表现得十分出色,在过去这个
球季Miller的tools跟技术都很好,可以防守多个位置,可以从侧翼守到中锋,可以贴着
侧翼对手,而且Miller太强壮了,没办法轻易撞开他的胸前迫使他降低他的臂展藉此突破
,在禁区高举双手可以阻挡大个子,且他有巨大的身型与8-10 1/2的摸高可以护框,只要
他愿意,甚至能在对手弱边轮转时展现他的防守优势,场均1抄截1火锅。
WEAKNESSES
Miller is extremely raw and does not have a ton of high-level basketball
experience. Plays almost entirely reactively right now
because he still doesn’t know 100 percent what he’s doing on the court at
times. Miller is kind of the ultimate test case for a
question that NBA evaluators have different opinions on. Does a lack of
experience mean a player still has upside to grow into as
he gains it? Or does it mean he’s lost a lot of important reps that he can’
t get back?
很RAW,没有太多高层级的篮球比赛经验,打球时还是仰赖天生反应,在NBA的评估者眼中
,这种很RAW的球员有可能意味着有巨大的进步空间,或是他在成长期经损失了大量重要
的机会累积经验(?)
Another big question with Miller is the jumper. Made just 32.1 percent of his
catch-and-shoot 3-point jumpers this past season,
per Synergy. Many of them were entirely unguarded opportunities as teams
played off him, daring him to shoot. He had a lot
of mechanical flaws despite that real touch mentioned above regarding his
finishing at the rim. His shot prep was very square
to the basket, meaning it seemed like his elbow wasn’t always aligned and he
was kind of turning in midair. Has a really bad
base. Release was inconsistent in terms of rhythm and tempo. Sometimes he’d
really speed it up. Sometimes it was slow and
methodical. Landing area was always different from shot to shot. Also had a
lot of off-hand interaction in the shot, which led
to right/left misses. Very inconsistent misses overall. Did not look like
something he had a lot of faith in from one shot to the
next. Having seen him in pre-draft workouts, Miller’s jumper has improved in
terms of rhythm, landing in the same space and
with off-hand placement. He has upside in this respect because he has elite
touch. But until he proves it in-game when guys are
closing out on him, it’s impossible to trust.
另一个大问题在於Miller的跳投,上赛季他C&S的三分命中率仅32.1%,其中甚至很多机会
都是无人防守的大空档,很多球队直接放空Miller使他不太敢投篮,尽管他的终结能力非
常优秀但他的投篮机制仍然存在缺陷,Miller投篮时他的肘部在半空中运用不好,而且投
篮的节奏与投篮速度不一致,有时会快速出手,有时会很慢很有条理地准备跳投,且每次
投篮的落点都不太一样、不稳定,在这次与下次的出手之间看起来也不够自信,不过在选
秀前的workouts,Miller在跳投的节奏上面有进步,投篮落点在同一个区域,而且辅助手
的放置也比较好,虽然Miller有着菁英级别的手感,但也要在实战中证明这一点才有用。
Miller can be a bit turnover-prone. Improved his overall intensity as the
season went on, understanding what it takes to be
constantly always engaged. Gets loose with his handle because of it. Was a
bit casual early in the season, probably the result of
his lack of experience and previous ability to dominate lower levels with
ease. Got ripped with way too much ease. But also has
occasional processing problems too. Picks up his dribble absent-mindedly a
bit too easily. Seems to still be a bit mechanical and
not quite as fluid as you want to see someone you hope develops into being a
point forward. He is kind of indecisive. Again, this
improved throughout the season, which offers real upside hope long term. But
he needs to showcase it over a longer stretch in
real games.
Miller蛮容易失误,但是随着比赛进行,他对於球赛的理解也提升,在赛季初打得比较随
兴,可能他太菜了,之前只在低层级的比赛虐菜,运球也不够细心,如果要将Miller养成
控球前锋,他有点优柔寡断,再次强调,Miller整个赛季打完有进步,但是需要在长期计
划下培养,他需要在之後的比赛中展现他的能耐。
Defensively, Miller is hit or miss, especially away from the ball. Way too
inconsistent. Really bad closeouts. That might be the
biggest part of his defensive issues. Closes out very high and has bad feet.
Legit ends up getting dropped by players attacking
his heavy closeouts somewhat regularly. But even more than that, he gets
attacked every time and gives up easy attacks and rim
pressure. Probably won’t be able to play in the NBA until he fixes this.
Still misses rotations more often than you’d like.
防守方面,Miller的表现时好时坏,特别是在无球防守表现非常不稳定,这可能是他防守
端最大的缺陷,防守时身体重心太高而且横移脚步差劲。且有时会放弃让对手轻松上篮得
分,在解决这个问题之前,他可能比你想像的更加困难进入常规轮换阵容。
Again, a lot of this comes down to experience. Miller seems to react late on
those rotations to close out, which means he’s
closing out heavily and putting himself in bad spots. A lot of the issues
come down to being put in spots where he has to be
overaggressive. He bites on pump fakes and pushes out onto his rotations too
often. But he also misses on a lot of seeming
communication errors where he seems to be the one who wasn’t totally sure on
the coverage, and it results in an easy layup. Will
switch when he shouldn’t or play too high at the level and miss his gaps.
同样的这跟经验有关,Miller似乎对於防守对方轮转的反应较慢,且常在关门时让自己落
入较差的位置,很多时候在於防守落位时他在原先安排的位置上过於激进,被假动作骗或
是太早把自己轮转换防出去,而且Miller也常发生防守沟通上的错误,Miller似乎对於自
己的防守区域还了解的不够纯熟,因此常常放掉很多对手的轻松上篮。
SUMMARY
Miller is going to be an incredibly polarizing prospect. He was last cycle as
well. The only difference is that this time evaluators
are forced into making a decision on him as opposed to being able to kick the
can down the road. The other key difference is
that Miller has displayed success against elite competition after his last
month and a half in the G League. Miller does stuff you
can’t really teach. He’s a big ballhandler who hits the glass and can
really attack and cover ground quickly with long strides but
also decelerate and change direction with the ball. His athleticism is a rare
blend. He’s an elite finisher with incredible touch
around the basket – the touch that kind of gives you hope long term that an
elite shooting coach will be able to fix it. There’s
some passing ability here. There’s some defensive upside here. It’s all
just in the form of an entirely unshaped diamond who may
never reach its full form because he’s starting from such a deficit in terms
of experience.
Miller是一个令人惊艳的两极化prospect,Miller在发展联盟最後一个半月展现了菁英
级别的表现,Miller的stuff是教不出来的,他是一个出色的持球手,能够冲框、能够快
速推进覆盖全场,且可以任意持球变速变向进攻,他的运动天赋非常惊人,他是名优秀的
终结手,而且有着极佳的终结手感的同时还带点分球能力,还有一些防守的优势,但目前
Miller在篮球比赛的经验还是太少,导致他目前仍然是颗尚未琢磨的钻石。
Miller had never played a level above the Ontario Scholastic League prior to
this past season. He didn’t get to play AAU
basketball against high-level athletes who can match him. Before he played at
Nike Hoop Summit and the combine last year,
he’d never even consistently played in games against Division I-level
talent. For him to figure out the G League within a year
is remarkable when put in that context. But even with that terrific play, he
still has a lot of warts that will be taken advantage
of to a greater degree in the NBA. I just hope Miller goes to a positive
developmental situation that will be willing to take their
time and teach him. The intel is pristine. He is a sponge who wants to learn.
If you’re willing to be patient, you could end up
with a steal. To answer the question posed above regarding a lack of
experience meaning lost reps or upside, I think the answer
depends on the person. With Miller, I tend to buy that there is real upside
here because I buy the human being involved. Miller
is intellectually curious and wants to be great at basketball. I’ll buy that
he can pick up the time he’s lost already because I think
he’ll put in the extra time to do so.
在上个赛季前,Miller从未打过Ontario Scholastic League,他也没参加AAU,去年他参
加Nike Hoop Summit 跟联合试训前,他甚至都没跟一级联赛等级的球员比赛过,Miller
花了一年摸索了G联盟的比赛,在这情形下仍然有出色的发挥。Miller像是一块海绵般想
要汲取所有知识,如果球队有耐心,我相信Miller会成为选秀顺位上的一偷,关於前面提
到Miller是否错失了成长期的经验问题,我认为答案取决於个人,对於Miller,我倾向相
信他有真正的天花板,从我的sources得知,Miller富有求知慾而且也想在篮球上成就出
色,我相信他可以弥补他过去丧失的时间,并且我认为Miller会额外投入时间以求成长。
