Miller with the Knicks for a limited amount of time in 06-07. Maurice Evans with a variety of teams from 2006-2012 (yes, he didn't graduate from Wichita State but did attend for two years).


Weak. Did Miller ever even play in a game? I find Evans a reach as well since he left WSU to go somewhere else.

Following his college career, Miller was not selected in the 2006 NBA Draft.[5] He was invited to play for the New York Knicks Summer League team, but did not make the final roster. Miller headed for Germany to play for Eisbären Bremerhaven of the Basketball Bundesliga, where he averaged 4.7 points and 2.3 rebounds per game. The next few years, Miller played in Poland (for Polonia Warbud Warszawa and WTK Anwil Wloclawek), Russia (for BC Triumph Lyubertsy) and Turkey (for Aliağa Petkim and Banvit B.K.). In 2012, he signed with JDA Dijon Basket of France's first division.[6]

Did he ever play in an NBA game?? Or do you count trying out in Summer League as an undrafted FA as being "with the Knicks?" Did he ever have any 10 day contracts? I think that is how Tolliver started.

When was the last time a WSU player was drafted?

Yes, Miller played in a few NBA games in 2006-2007 (October of that year on a 10-day contract). Wichita State hasn't had a player actually drafted since 1987, but then again the MVC in general has not had a player drafted in over half a decade (and only about 8 players between last WSU player and now).

Is "Paul" his real first name? Because if not, NBA.com does not list a single player named Paul Miller in its historical database.

I think his real first name is Reggie, but it might be Oliver. I can't remember.

I too could find no evidence of Paul Miller appearing officially in any New York Knickerbocker Box Score from 2006-2007 season. :huh:

I think we can all agree that the Wichita player is not the best player in the league. If he keeps playing well he may end up on the All Valley team but we'll see. If you take out the top 2 games and bottom 2 games the Wichita player averages 14.61ppg and shoots a little over 52.5%. Compare that to D McD he averages 24.21 ppg and shoots a little better than 56.5%.

Is it possible his 10 day cup of coffee didn't include any PT?

Who has been in the league over the last 10 years or so? Korver and Tolliver from CU, Ahearn from MSU, O'Bryant from BU.....anyone else?
