“I actually don’t think LeBron is the GOAT of basketball… My GOAT of basketball is Paul George.”
Brandon Miller weighs in on the GOAT debate. Victor Wembanyama is considered one of the greatest prospects in NBA history and is the most-hyped young player we’ve seen enter the league since LeBron James.
Brandon Miller thinks he’s better.
“I feel like I’m No. 1, but you can’t beat 7’5″, 8-foot wingspan. I mean, the guy’s an animal,” Miller told Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium. “I respect him. Right now, I’m just taking it day by day with my family. When we get to [draft] night, it’s going to be really exciting and emotional.”
Brandon Miller and his legal team are vehemently defending his innocence. They assert that Miller did not know the firearm was found in his car. However, recent developments have cast doubt on the veracity of Miller’s claims, particularly in light of a text message exchange between Miller and his former teammate, Darius Miles.
The text message conversation between Miles and Miller, where Miles requests the gun, has raised concerns about Miller’s previous statements regarding his lack of awareness regarding the weapon. This new evidence has led to questions about the truthfulness of Miller’s defense.
Miller is currently a -165 favorite to be selected by the Charlotte Hornets with the No. 2 pick at FanDuel Sportsbook. Wembanyama is a minus-20000 favorite to be taken first overall.
While most evaluators pegged Wembanyama and guard Scoot Henderson as the clear 1-2 in this class for months, Miller was among the biggest winners of the draft lottery. The Hornets have no obvious need for a point guard with LaMelo Ball already in place, whereas they have a desperate need for scoring on the wing.
According to police testimonies, it is believed that Miller may have supplied the firearm used in the fatal shooting to his former teammate, Darius Miles. Miles, in turn, reportedly passed the weapon to another individual who ultimately carried out the crime. Miles and his criminal accomplice, Michael Lynn Davis, have been charged with capital murder and await trial.
Although Miller has been accused of aiding the crime by providing the firearm used to shoot Harris fatally, recent revelations indicate that the gun belonged to Miles. Court documents suggest that it was Davis who pulled the trigger, leading to the tragic demise of Harris.
