It shouldn’t come as no surprise to see Brandon Miller checking in at No. 1 on this list. He’s, at worst, the third-best prospect in this year’s NBA Draft class. And over the last couple of months, there are many draft experts that have him as their second-best prospect behind Victor Wembanyama.

Coming off a season in which he averaged 19 points and eight rebounds on 43 percent shooting from the field and 38 percent shooting from 3-point range, there is understandably plenty of hype surrounding Miller.

Miller has a unique size (at 6-foot-9) and skill set. He’s a natural scorer and has shown the potential to be a true No. 1 option for a team. Even though he struggled in the NCAA Tournament, the ceiling is still high for Miller at the next level. He’s one of the prospects that many expect to develop into a star in the NBA.

He’s as close to a sure thing in this year’s NBA Draft that isn’t named Wembanyama. Miller is going to be a top 3 pick and should have a great chance to be a big-time player in a few years.
