Florida State sophomore Baba Miller to enter transfer portal, test NBA draft

Florida State sophomore Baba Miller will reportedly enter the transfer portal, while opting to test the 2024 NBA draft.

Florida State sophomore Baba Miller will reportedly enter the transfer portal, while opting to test the 2024 NBA draft, according to Jonathan Givony of ESPN.

Miller averaged 7.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.1 blocked shots on 44.9% shooting from the field in 33 games this season. He scored in double figures eight times, including a season-high 14 points, three rebounds and three blocks on Jan. 9.

He finished 10th in the ACC in total blocks (37).

Miller projects to be one of the top players in the transfer portal and will likely have several programs interested in landing him. He will test the pre-draft process and have the opportunity to meet and work out with prospective teams.

Miller opted to return to Florida State after an up-and-down freshman campaign. He was limited to 15 games with the Seminoles due to an offseason injury and a suspension stemming from a rules infraction committed in 2020.

He was previously highly recruited as a four-star prospect and ultimately chose the Seminoles over Gonzaga. Miller, standing at 6 feet, 11 inches, is highly touted for his versatility, athleticism and ability to defend with his 7-foot-2 wingspan.

Miller previously represented Spain in the 2023 FIBA U19 Basketball World Cup. He averaged 9.4 points, six rebounds and 1.3 assists in seven games, helping Spain win the gold medal.

Florida State forward Baba Miller on Friday told Jonathan Givony of ESPN that he will return to school after an up-and-down freshman campaign.

Miller, who was born in Palma, Spain, averaged 4.3 points and 3.7 rebounds on 47.4% shooting from the field. He was limited to 15 games due to an  offseason injury and a suspension stemming from a rules infraction committed in 2020.

He was highly recruited last year as a four-star prospect and ultimately chose the Seminoles over Gonzaga. Miller, standing at 6 feet, 11 inches, is highly touted for his versatility and athleticism, and ability to defend with his 7-foot-2 wingspan.

Miller, now healthy, will represent Spain in the 2023 FIBA U19 Basketball World Cup in Hungary from June 24-July 2. The event will give him the opportunity to compete against the top players in the world in his age group ahead of his sophomore season.

He is considered a potential first-round pick next year given his overall skill set and physical attributes. The program has helped send several players to the NBA in recent memory and Miller looks to join that list.
