Five-star forward Brandon Miller commits to Alabama
By ADAM ZAGORIA
Five-star forward Brandon Miller is headed to Alabama.
Ranked the No. 3 small forward in 247Sports.com Composite, the 6-foot-8 small forward out of Cane Ridge (TN) chose the Tide over Kansas, Tennessee State, the Australian NBL and the NBA G League.
“I will be playing college basketball at the University of Alabama. Roll Tide,” he said on CBS Sports HQ.
“I’ve always said I like the coaches better than anything. Coach [Nate] Oats is a great coach, he has good coaches around him that will I believe help me to reach my dreams.”
Miller joins point guard Jaden Bradley in Alabama’s 2022 class. The Tide remain in the mix for forwards Noah Clowney, who will announce later Monday, and Jarace Walker, who announces Thursday.
“I’m targeting Jarace Walker and Noah Clowney,” Miller said.
