Brandon Miller Signs $209M Extension with Charlotte Hornets

Forward Brandon Miller and the Charlotte Hornets agreed to a five-year, $209 million rookie contract extension. The No. 2 pick in 2023 established himself as Charlotte's cornerstone after averaging 20.2 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 3.3 assists while shooting 38.3% from deep last season. Following the summer trade of LaMelo Ball and preseason injuries to Kon Knueppel and Coby White, Charlotte is relying heavily on the 23-year-old Miller to lead their offense.
