Miller’s rookie season was impressive. He averaged 18.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.5 assists after the All-Star break and finished third in Rookie of the Year voting behind Victor Wembanyama and Chet Holmgren. While third place may seem unimportant most of the time, this rookie class was exceptionally strong. Wembanyama is a one-of-a-kind talent and Holmgren missed his first rookie season due to injury.
With the Hornets roster hoping to be healthier and more balanced this season, there is plenty of excitement about what Miller can accomplish. If he continues to develop, he could become one of the best wings in the league and help the Hornets qualify for the play-in in his second season.
