Brandon Miller has decided to take the next step in his professional career.

Brandon Miller has decided to forgo the rest of his college eligibility and enter the NBA Draft. The standout Alabama freshman will be one of the top picks in this year's draft. Miller's season performance was overshadowed by his alleged involvement in the murder of Jamea Harris. However, the allegations against Miller are still in the midst of being processed. Although, at the moment, it doesn't seem the allegations will affect his draft status.

Miller was awarded the 2023 SEC Player of The Year award at the season's end. The Crimson Tide were head and shoulders above everyone in the conference. With Miller leading the charge. The soon-to-be lottery pick averaged 19 points a game in his lone college season. Miller's great season helped lead Alabama to a regular season and conference tournament SEC Championship. Overall, it was the team's sixth conference tournament championship in their history.

Brandon Miller Is Heading For NBA Stardom

Without question, Australian star Victor Wembanyama will be the first pick in the draft. The Australian sensation has dazzled scouts across the league with his talent and sheer size. Whereas the Webanyama sweepstakes are in full effect. As the Spurs, Rockets, and Pistons look to have the best chance of landing the big man. However, Miller will be no consolation prize. However, Miller will have to be cleared of any wrongdoing in the murder of Harris to further his career. Surprisingly, details on Miller's alleged involvement in the case are tightly sealed.

Miller's decision to enter the NBA Draft was an easy one. While NIL has made a positive impact on college athletes making money, Miller is a surefire lottery pick. With that accolade comes millions of dollars and instant stardom. Miller's Alabama career will surely be written as confusing in the history books. An incredible talent that could potentially be for nothing due to off-the-court pain. Do you believe that Miller's talents will translate to the NBA?
