Alabama's Brandon Miller to Enter Name in 2023 NBA Draft
Alabama freshman Brandon Miller will enter his name in the 2023 NBA Draft, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
At 6-foot-9, Miller is thought of to be the top overall collegiate prospect, and will likely be a consensus top-three selection come draft night 2023. A do-it-all wing with premier offensive ability and a growing two-way game, Miller gained steam as the top college prospect mid-way through the season and never looked back.
In 37 games with the Crimson Tide, he averaged 18.8 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists while shooting 43 percent overall and 38 percent from beyond the arc on 7.5 attempts per game.
At each at every turn it seemed that Miller improved upon his previously thought of knocks. His at-rim finishing blossomed as the season progressed, his playmaking shined through in big time moments in the NCAA Tournament and his handle, while it still has a ways to go, showed obvious improvement as well.
Miller told ESPN that that he thanked "God, my family, my fans and all the coaches at the University of Alabama," and will forgo his remaining college eligibility to enter the NBA.
At 20-years-old, Miller is one of the older one-and-done’s of the group. But very little will dispel teams from giving him a look as high as three and potentially even the No. 2 pick overall.
