Clippers' Baba Miller: Do-it-all performance in loss
Rotowire
Miller totaled 10 points (3-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, two steals and one block in 16 minutes during Saturday's 114-106 preseason loss to the Raptors.
Miller averaged 13.0 points, 10.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.2 blocks per game on 53/19/66 shooting splits during his senior season as a Bearcat, and he was expected to be brought along slowly. However, with all of the Clippers' preseason injuries, Miller may get extended opportunities during his rookie campaign.

Rotowire
Miller ended with four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 FT), five rebounds and one steal in 17 minutes during Spain's 108-106 loss to Greece in Tuesday's FIBA World Cup qualifier.
Miller has remained active this offseason, as he participated in the Las Vegas Summer League with the Clippers before playing for Spain in the FIBA World Cup qualifiers. The rookie second-rounder could have a hard time cracking Los Angeles' Opening Night rotation, as Isaiah Jackson, Rui Hachimura and Max Strus are all well-positioned for reserve roles.

Clippers' Baba Miller: Nets 15 points with two treys
Rotowire
Miller registered 15 points (5-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 26 minutes during Sunday's 104-82 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Jazz.
Miller scored with remarkable efficiency, missing just two shots in 26 minutes while knocking down both of his free throws. The second-round pick is an intriguing seven-foot playmaker, but it may be difficult for him to carve out meaningful minutes in Los Angeles while Rui Hachimura, Brandon Ingram and Derrick Jones are healthy.
