Jalen Miller (6-foot-2, 220 lbs) is one of head coach Steve Pikiell’s best defenders on the 2022-23 Scarlet Knights roster. Pikiell leaned on Jalen Miller on the defensive end, subbing him in for a spark off the bench due to his tireless effort contesting the opponents’ best players.
Miller has been extensively working on his jump shot through the offseason and hopes to contribute on both sides of the ball. Pikiell has called Miller his second-best perimeter defender behind reigning Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year Caleb McConnell. Pikiell thinks that Miller can reach the defensive heights of McConnell in his future with the Scarlet Knights. Miller approached the coaching staff during his freshman season last year and told them he did not want to redshirt and would rather contribute right away to the Scarlet Knights.
