Former Miami Hurricanes star Jordan Miller was selected 48th overall in the NBA Draft by the Los Angeles Clippers. A vital contributor on both ends of the court, Miller promises to bring a refreshing blend of grit and finesse to the Clippers' roster.

Miller, a transfer from George Mason after the 2020-2021 season, played an instrumental role in leading the Hurricanes to the Elite Eight and Final Four in consecutive seasons. Miami's head coach, Jim Larranaga, didn't hesitate to call Miller "the most underrated player in the country," a title echoed by many within the college basketball community.

Miller delivered one of the most iconic performances in Hurricanes' history in the Elite Eight. The wing player decimated the 2-seed Texas Longhorns, boasting a perfect shooting night with 27 points. He was an immaculate 7-7 from the field and 13-13 from the free-throw line, an exploit that solidified his legendary status in Canes' folklore.

Averaging 15.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.2 steals in 35 minutes per game, Miller proved his efficiency and productivity throughout his senior season. His impressive statistics are a testament to his well-roundedness and consistency.

Renowned for his ability to alter the game's course, Miller emerged as a slashing scorer who could navigate contact with agility on his way to the hoop. His development into a competent outside shooter has further expanded his offensive repertoire, even though consistency at NBA-level perimeter shooting remains an area for improvement.
Miller's rebounding prowess and defensive ability distinguish him as a complete player.
