Summary:
Baba Miller is a very athletic, energetic combo forward that thrives at making hustle plays on both ends of the floor. He handles the ball well for his size, and he can ably score off the dribble or in the post. He is a rangy defender that can get steals and blocks. He will need to be a more consistent shooter, but his length, athleticism, and versatility makes him an intriguing prospect.
Miller is a very athletic big man that could develop into a versatile player that could play all three frontcourt positions. He is a high-upside prospect that could be a very good value pick in the late first to the second round range of the 2026 draft.
