Hornets' Brandon Miller: Shut down for rest of Summer League
Miller has been shut down for the remainder of the Summer League due to a coach's decision.
Miller put together some encouraging performances during Summer League play and averaged 15.2 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.2 steals per game over five appearances. However, the Hornets won't take any chances with his health, and he'll now shift his focus toward preparing for training camp.

Hornets' Brandon Miller: Bounces back against Portland
Miller tallied 26 points (8-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 97-93 Summer League loss to the Trail Blazers.
Miller had by far his best Summer League outing to date Tuesday after struggling in his first three appearances. However, his foul trouble is worrying, as he picked up five against Portland. Regardless, Miller flashed the offensive and defensive potential that caused Charlotte to draft him second overall.

Hornets' Brandon Miller: Struggles with shot
Miller recorded 10 points (4-17 FG, 0-7 3PT, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, and a steal over 29 minutes in Sunday's 93-75 loss to the Lakers during Summer League.
Miller has had an inconsistent Summer League thus far and really struggled to get any shots to go in Charlotte's blowout loss against the Lakers. The Alabama product was able to impact the game in other areas, however, posting team highs in rebounds and assists while not committing a turnover. His shooting numbers should not be a source of concern at this point, but his efficiency and ability to avoid turnovers are areas he will look to continue improving upon as Summer League continues.

Hornets' Brandon Miller: Struggles with efficiency
Miller recorded six points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3PT, 1-1 FT), seven assists, four rebounds and a steal over 28 minutes in Wednesday's 98-90 loss to the Warriors during Summer League.
After pouring in 18 points in his NBA debut, Miller struggled to find an impact in the scoring column, being held scoreless until the 5:30 mark in the fourth quarter and finishing with just four shot attempts. Instead, the No. 2 pick took on a facilitating role, dishing out a game-high seven assists. However, Miller committed eight personal fouls and turned the ball over four times on his way to a negative-22 plus-minus.

Hornets' Brandon Miller: Coughs up six times
Miller finished Monday's Summer League game against the Spurs with 18 points (5-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-7 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block over 34 minutes.
Miller turned in a decent final line, but he also committed six turnovers in the 98-77 loss. The 2023 No. 2 overall pick will continue to have plenty of eyes on him as Summer League unfolds, but overall, this was a decent first showing for the 20-year-old rookie.

Hornets' Brandon Miller: Selected No. 2 by Charlotte
Miller was selected by the Hornets with the second overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft.
The Hornets were reportedly considering Miller and Scoot Henderson with the No. 2 pick, and the team elected to select the Alabama standout. Miller spent just one season with the Crimson Tide but quickly established himself as one of the top collegiate players in the nation while averaging 18.8 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 32.6 minutes per game. The 20-year-old has a clean jumper with an ability to use his length to get to the basket. Miller should claim a starting role on the wing right away, likely pushing Kelly Oubre to the bench.
