It’s the final weekend before the NBA regular season begins, which means you’re coming here for your fantasy basketball drafts.
Should you draft Brandon Miller this season? Here’s the latest outlook, projections, and rankings for the Charlotte Hornets Shooting Guard.
Should You Draft Brandon Miller in Fantasy Basketball?
Brandon Miller made a significant leap during his sophomore season with the Charlotte Hornets, averaging 21.0 points, 4.9 rebounds, 3.9 3s, 3.6 assists, and 1.1 steals in 34.2 minutes per game last season.
However, his season ended after just 27 games due to a torn ligament in his wrist. Miller should pick up right where he left off in his third season, and he has a ton of appeal in both category and keeper leagues.
Miller’s health is the biggest question mark, but if he can stay healthy, he could be a potential breakout candidate who far exceeds his 86th overall ADP in ESPN leagues. The Hornets added a number of new players this offseason, but Miller’s role is safe (and it’s possible the addition of Kon Knueppel could help Charlotte’s spacing and make life easier for Miller).
