THE SEASON SO FAR
Extreme volatility defined the first third of Brandon Miller’s season, as he oscillated wildly between lethal scoring outbursts and brutal offensive droughts. During the 11/29 vs TOR matchup, his shot selection completely abandoned him. He forced up heavily contested looks to finish with just 7 points on a disastrous 1-for-13 from the floor, resulting in a bleak -12.8 Impact score as his erratic decisions killed the team's rhythm. Even when his point totals looked respectable, hidden costs sometimes dragged him down, which was glaringly obvious in the 12/13 vs CHI game. Despite logging 18 points, his terrible 8-for-22 shooting clip and wasted offensive possessions yielded a -4.1 Impact score. Yet, when he found his spots within the flow of the offense, Miller looked like a budding superstar. On 12/19 vs ATL, he carved up the defense with razor-sharp efficiency, pouring in 26 points on 9-of-15 shooting while dishing out 8 assists to earn a massive +22.5 Impact score.
This midseason stretch was defined by Miller's evolution into a boom-or-bust volume shooter who lived and died by his jumper. When his shot selection was disciplined, he was utterly lethal. This was obvious during the 01/26 vs PHI matchup, where he poured in 30 points on near-perfect 9-for-11 shooting. That masterclass in offensive efficiency earned him a staggering +32.4 Impact score, as he punished defenders without forcing bad looks. However, Miller managed to score 17 points during the 02/19 vs HOU contest, but that superficial total masked an abysmal 5-for-22 shooting night. His stubborn refusal to stop chucking from deep—missing 11 of his 12 three-point attempts—wasted critical offensive possessions and resulted in a damaging -6.2 Impact score. He eventually corrected his course by finding his stroke and eliminating the forced attempts. By letting the offense come to him in the 02/26 vs IND game, Miller dropped 33 points on 11-for-19 shooting to generate a massive +24.0 Impact score.
Brandon Miller spent this late-season stretch oscillating wildly between lethal scoring outbursts and baffling offensive duds. On 03/14 vs SAS, he clanked his way to a miserable 2-for-14 from the floor. That forced, erratic shot selection derailed the offense and resulted in a brutal -18.4 Impact score. He bounced back emphatically on 03/28 vs PHI. Pouring in 29 points and grabbing 8 rebounds, Miller posted a massive +22.4 Impact score. Even without recording a single assist, his aggressive rebounding and sharp perimeter shooting created immense value. Look at his brilliant all-around performance on 03/06 vs MIA. He racked up 22 points, 13 boards, and 5 assists for a +19.0 Impact score, a mark driven heavily by relentless glass-cleaning and smart ball movement.
