Adam Zagoria covers basketball at all levels. He is the author of two books and an award-winning journalist whose articles have appeared in ESPN The Magazine, SLAM, Sheridan Hoops, Sports Illustrated, Basketball Times and in newspapers nationwide.
Quincy Miller’s career at Westchester Country Day in High Point, N.C. lasted all of 10 games.
The 6-foot-9, 210-pound Baylor signee tore his ACL in a Dec. 10 victory over High Point Christian and will undergo surgery Tuesday morning, according to a source with knowledge.
The ACL tear was first reported by the Greensboro News & Record.
ACL recovery typically takes between 6-8 months.
A Chicago native, Miller previously played at Quality Education in North Carolina before transferring to Westchester Country Day for his senior season.
But he lasted just 10 games.
Miller, who committed to Baylor along with friend and teammate Deuce Bello, was the only player 6-4 or taller at Westchester Country Day (8-2).
Faced with a national schedule, the program must now go forward without him. The team is currently competing in the City of Palms Classic in Florida.
“I feel bad for him, obviously,” Westchester athletic director Pat Kahny said by phone from Florida. “We’ll survive and continue to move forward. We got him for 10 games and that was it.”
