We got one of the league’s young studs in the building this week. The number two pick in last year’s draft, the Hornets’ own Brandon Miller joins Q and D this week on Knuckleheads. The trio takes a look back at Brandon as a three-sport athlete, checking the stats on his pitching and quarterbacking résumés. Brandon discusses his rise during high school and how he considered going overseas instead of to college, as well as just how he dominated at Bama. He also gets into how he feels his rookie year went — and, of course, we got LaMelo stories. Tune in! 

1. Growing up a three-sport athlete in Tennessee, being a 6’7” punter (3:45)
2. First time he beat his brother in 1-on-1 (6:26) 
3. Playing for Bradley Beal’s AAU team (9:29) 
4. Almost going overseas, electing to go to Alabama for college (21:06)
