  • Hornets' Brandon Miller: Struggles with shot in win

    Miller finished with 18 points (7-21 FG, 3-14 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, an assist and a block across 36 minutes in Wednesday's 110-103 win over the Nets.

    Miller struggled with his shooting efficiency, particularly from beyond the arc, but his 21 field-goal attempts and team-high 36 minutes highlight his substantial offensive role. The high-volume shooting should support his scoring upside even when his efficiency fluctuates. This wasn't the best season-opening performance for Miller, who signed a five-year, $209 million rookie-scale contract extension Monday, but his role as the Honets' go-to scoring weapon is pretty much set in stone, so managers shouldn't be overly concerned for just one inefficient outing.

  • Hornets' Brandon Miller: Inks extension with Hornets

    Miller agreed to a five-year, $209 million rookie-scale contract extension with Charlotte on Monday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    The Hornets have already elected to exercise a $15.1 million team option for the 2026-27 season, but this deal will keep Miller in Charlotte for years to come. The 23-year-old has averaged 20-plus points in each of his last two seasons and will serve in a key scoring role heading into the upcoming campaign.

  • Hornets' Brandon Miller: Scores 15 points with three stocks

    Miller registered 15 points (4-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two assists, one steal and two blocks over 25 minutes in Friday's 117-98 preseason loss to the Grizzlies.

    Miller struggled with his shot over Charlotte's final two preseason games, going 8-for-29 from the floor, but he still delivered with the counting stats. Miller's shooting percentage has never been his strong suit, but he has a knack for stuffing the stat sheet and should see a large uptick in usage this season with the departure of LaMelo Ball. He'll make for a solid mid-round target on draft day.

  • Hornets' Brandon Miller: Struggles with shot in preseason loss

    Miller scored 16 points (4-17 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 5-5FT) while adding five rebounds and two steals in 27 minutes during Wednesday's preseason loss to the Celtics.

    With a number of key backcourt players unavailable, the Hornets went with a big starting five that shifted Miller to shooting guard while Royce O'Neale joined Naz Reid and Moussa Diabate in the frontcourt. The alignment didn't seem to suit Miller, although he did tie Tidjane Salaun for the team scoring lead. Miller heads into his fourth NBA season mainly looking to prove he can stay healthy after missing a combined 72 regular-season games over the prior two campaigns.

  • Hornets' Brandon Miller: Scores 18 in preseason win

    Miller recorded 18 points (6-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, three rebounds and a block in 22 minutes during Sunday's 105-90 preseason win over the Bucks.

    Miller made his preseason debut Sunday after missing time with a shin contusion he suffered in practice. The 23-year-old pro matched a game-high with 18 points, albeit with mediocre efficiency. Despite struggling from the floor overall, Miller was highly effective from beyond the arc, connecting on a game-high four three-pointers.

  • Hornets' Brandon Miller: Starting Versus Milwaukee

    Miller will start in Sunday's preseason game against Milwaukee.

    Miller didn't play in Tuesday's loss to Brooklyn due to a shin injury, but he will be on the floor Sunday versus the Bucks. The 23-year-old is coming off a productive 2025-26 campaign, averaging 20.2 points, 4.9 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.0 steals over 30.3 minutes per contest in 65 regular-season games.

  • Hornets' Brandon Miller: Good to go Sunday

    Miller (shin) will play in Sunday's preseason game against the Bucks.

    Miller missed Tuesday's preseason-opening loss to the Nets due to a shin contusion, though he'll suit up for Sunday's contest. With the 23-year-old swingman back in action, Liam McNeeley could slide to the second unit, though Grayson Allen's (knee) spot in the first unit is up for grabs.

  • Hornets' Brandon Miller: Won't play against Brooklyn

    Miller (leg) is listed as out for Tuesday's preseason game versus the Nets.

    Miller suffered a shin contusion during Tuesday's practice. Although there haven't been further details, his absence against the Nets is likely precautionary. The 23-year-old ended the 2025-26 campaign by averaging 20.2 points, 4.9 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.0 steals while shooting a career-high 38.3 percent from deep over 30.3 minutes per contest in 65 regular-season games.

  • Hornets' Brandon Miller: Ready for training camp

    Hornets general manager Jeff Peterson said Monday that Miller (shoulder) is expected to participate in training camp and be ready for the start of the regular season, Hunter Bailey of the HWY 49 Podcast reports.

    Miller's availability for training camp is an encouraging sign after his injury issues last season. Peterson expects the forward to be "ready to roll" for Opening Night, which would be a significant boost for a Charlotte squad that could be without Kon Knueppel (hamstring) to begin the season.

  • Hornets' Brandon Miller: Nearing return to action

    Miller (shoulder) provided an update on his rehab with comments to Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer on Tuesday.

    With Miller coming off May surgery to address left shoulder instability, any rehab update is notable as Charlotte prepares for training camp. "It's going good, going good," Miller said. "I'm getting stronger. That's all I can ask for. The stronger I get, the more mobile I am with the shoulder, and that is the most important thing." He wasn't ready to commit to a timetable, and he's still awaiting full clearance for basketball activities, with training camp a little over a month away.
