Millers minutes weren’t going to go down here. Ayo played 35 minutes a game last year. Those minutes have to be replaced. Miller and Curbelo were both in line to take up more of those.
Miller was going to be at worst our 3rd best player next year. He’s certainly not going to play less as a sophomore than his first year when Ayo/Kofi were on the team.
Miller's minutes would likely be up. I agree.
and I am/was a Miller fan... but to say that he would be our 3rd best player AT WORST, is at best, uncertain.
Curbello (1) for sure.
Kofi (for sure) / Omar (potentially)
Trent (likely more integral),
Damonte (prob not better, but maybe),
Grandy might be better than AM,
Hutch might be better than AM,
and Plummer might be,
Goode maybe,
RJ maybe...
Fact is, Miller's game has cracks, at this stage. (namely ballhandling and creating/slashing).
He
could be the 3rd best player on this team... but now way was he a lock at 3rd.
