Cincinnati’s Baba Miller is one of the best Upperclassmen prospects in this year’s NBA Draft.
The 6’11 Playmaking Forward had a strong season where he averaged 13/10/4 along with 1.2 BPG, while shooting 53% from the field.
Baba’s mix of athleticism, playmaking, shot creation, off ball scoring, finishing, defensive versatility, rebounding, and motor, all make him an extremely valuable player.
Baba was one of the most efficient finishers in the country where he shot 72% at the rim on 144 attempts and had the ability to score as a creator, a rim runner, or off a offensive rebound and PNR. Baba’s size and athleticism helps him finish through contact at an elite level and his ability to score on and off the ball gives him a ton of versatility. Baba is also one of the best passers in the class at 6’11 and has the ability to find his teammates with his passing vision, while also having the ability to create scoring opportunities for his teammates. On the defensive end Baba is arguably the most versatile defender in the class with his ability to defend the 1-5 at 6’11 and he has the ability to be used as an defensive anchor, and he was the catalyst for Cincinnati having a top 10 defense in the country.
