Mike Miller may have retired from playing competitive basketball in 2017 but the former 17-year NBA veteran can still put on a clinic on the hardwood.
Miller became an assistant coach under Penny Hardaway at Memphis in 2018 after retiring from the NBA. The two-time NBA champion has become one of the best recruiters in the country and has helped Memphis become a marquee program in the country.
Miller just announced last week that he would be resigning from that position to spend time with his family but despite leaving the program, a video recently surfaced on social media of Miller dominating a Tigers player in practice.
Derek Malloy, a graduate assistant at Memphis, posted some videos on Twitter of players challenging Miller in the gym but each came up unsuccessful.

Miller proved to play a crucial role off of the bench to help the Miami Heat win two titles in 2012 and 2013. During Game 5 of the 2012 NBA Finals, Miller set a record by a reserve after hitting seven 3-pointers to help the Heat win the game.
Those skills haven’t yet left him, as some Tigers players saw firsthand.
