Alright, so I wanted to check out how Brandon Miller was doing in the Summer League. You know, lots of talk about him being the #2 pick, especially with Scoot Henderson going right after him. I was curious, plain and simple.
So, what did I do? First thing, I just grabbed my phone while kicking back on the sofa. Didn’t go anywhere fancy. I popped open my usual sports app – the one I check every morning for scores. Typed his name “Brandon Miller” into the search bar.
It pulled up his player profile pretty quick. Then I had to tap around a bit to find the specific Summer League games. They usually tuck those away under a different tab than the regular season stuff, you know?
Finding the Actual Numbers
Once I landed on the Summer League section for the Hornets, I could see his game logs. I went through them game by game initially.
- Looked at his points per game first. That’s always the flashy number everyone looks at.
- Then I checked out his shooting percentages. Field goals overall, and definitely his three-point percentage. People were talking about his shooting, so I wanted to see the numbers myself.
- Didn’t forget rebounds and assists, gotta see if he’s doing more than just scoring.
- Turnovers too! Especially for a young guy, important to see if he’s taking care of the ball.
My Quick Thoughts
Honestly, just looking at the raw stats? It was a bit up and down, which I guess you expect from rookies in Summer League. Saw some games where the shooting wasn’t great, percentage-wise. Then maybe another game he’d look a bit better scoring the ball.
The turnovers seemed a little high in some box scores I glanced at. Rebounding and assists were okay, nothing jumping off the page immediately from the numbers I saw.
It’s Summer League, right? Hard to tell everything from these games. Guys are just getting used to the speed, playing with new teammates. So, I didn’t put too much weight on it, but it was interesting to finally put some actual numbers to all the talk I’d been hearing. Just wanted to see for myself instead of relying on headlines. Now I’ve got my own baseline for what I saw.
