TCU’s Dixon hopeful for Miller’s return against Kansas State

TCU men’s basketball coach Jamie Dixon said Monday that he remains hopeful but unclear about the availability of forward J.D. Miller, a starter who averages 7.8 points and 3.3 rebound per game, for Wednesday’s contest against Kansas State.

Miller missed Saturday’s 61-60 loss to No. 10 West Virginia because of a groin injury that flared up shortly before tipoff in Schollmaier Arena. Miller, who has been battling the ailment in recent days, practiced with the team Friday but struggled to walk Saturday when he awoke and alerted trainers.

As of Monday, Dixon said Miller has been taking treatment but has not returned to practice.
