Miller is the team's second-leading scorer and was the No. 2 overall pick in the 2023 NBA draft. He was held out of Charlotte's 125-123 win over Chicago on Friday night with what the team initially called a "wrist sprain." The Hornets announced after the game that Miller, who's averaging 21 points, has a torn wrist ligament.
