a durable, perimeter-minded former UTA guard whose college arc was disrupted by injury
In the 2008-09 season, Jon Miller appeared in just 4 games and 18 minutes for UT Arlington before a nose injury required surgery and ended his year, which is the big context here: his college value was interrupted before it could really settle in. He came out of Marcus High School as a 6-foot-4 guard known for scoring and defense, and UTA listed him as a perimeter option with first-team all-district pedigree and a defensive-player-of-the-year background. If you’re evaluating fit, he reads as a wing/guard built on toughness, size, and two-way potential rather than gaudy box-score production.
