defensive guard whose Tar Heel career was defined by grit, charges drawn, and a comeback cut short
Alex Miller’s North Carolina story is less about gaudy box-score numbers and more about impact: she was praised as a top on-ball defender, a leader in charges drawn, and a steady guard for a UNC team that won four ACC titles and reached two Final Fours. In the 2008-09 season, she returned from a severe patellar tendon injury but was limited, and her career ended early after that setback. If you want a tough, defensive-minded guard with veteran savvy and team-first edge, she fits the mold.
