The Real Madrid youth squad had four points and four rebounds with Florida State after serving a 16-game suspension
Baba Miller, one of the great prospects of Spanish basketball, made his debut early Thursday morning with Florida State in the NCAA, the university league par excellence. The 18-year-old Balearic forward and 2.11 meters tall, had four points and four rebounds in his first game.
After shining in the Spanish Amateur Basketball League (EBA), averaging 12 points and more than four rebounds per game in the Adidas Next Generation Tournament, the Euroleague junior tournament, and making his debut with the Real Madrid first team, Miller went to the United States to fulfill the dream of playing in the NBA. However, the Madrid youth squad had been unable to play in the first half of the season after being penalized 16 games for accepting university-funded travel to go to training camps, something prohibited by the NCAA.
The Spaniard’s rapid projection puts him in the top 10 of the NBA draft, according to experts. Born in 2004, Miller has 15 games ahead of him to demonstrate his skills and physical fitness, which have already caught the attention of NBA teams and agents.
