"I feel great, my confidence level is high. I take my hat off to my teammates every night, because without them I wouldn't have games like this, without their trust," Miller said. "So as long as I keep trusting them, we're gonna keep pushing these wins to the city of Charlotte."
In addition to his 30 points, Brandon Miller added eight rebounds, two assists and two steals in the Hornets' win against the 76ers. He shot 9-of-11 (81.8 percent) from the field, 6-of-8 (75 percent) from the 3-point line and a perfect 6-of-6 from the free-throw line in a little over 27 minutes.
Last season, the Hornets won a total of 19 games. They've already reached that win total with a little more than half the season left to play. Over the last 15 games, the Hornets have been No. 1 in the league in offensive rating, No. 1 in second chance points, No. 1 in 3-point percentage, No. 2 in rebound percentage and No. 4 in net rating, as per The Lead.
And a big reason why they've been winning is the play of Miller . The No. 2 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, he's bounced back from a shoulder injury that prematurely ended his season last year.
