Brandon Miller expected to sign extension exceeding $208 million with Hornets

Brandon Miller is likely to sign a contract extension with the Charlotte Hornets that could exceed five years and $208 million. NBA insider Marc Stein reports Miller's new deal would surpass that of Amen Thompson, who recently signed a similar extension. Despite facing injuries last season, Miller averaged 20.2 points per game and was the team's leading scorer. As the Hornets prepare for the 2026-27 season, Miller is set to play a key role in the team's offense alongside Kon Knueppel, positioning him for potential All-Star recognition.
