Miller plays an important role for a Hilltopper team that’s had just eight players available for its first 15 games of the season. The 6-foot-4 senior walk-on has appeared in 13 games this season, on pace to far surpass the 15 he played all last year.
Miller’s basketball path started in his hometown where his mother, Renee Jones, played women’s basketball at Louisville from 1985-89.
Miller appeared in 59 games over two seasons at Marshalltown CC, starting 53. He averaged 8.5 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.7 steals as a sophomore in 2015-16.
