Brandon Miller still appears to have strong support among Alabama fans.
The Crimson Tide’s star forward and projected top-five NBA draft pick received raucous applause and cheers by the Alabama faithful before the team’s 86-83 win over Arkansas on Saturday in Tuscaloosa, Ala. As he was introduced in the starting lineups, however Miller pretended to be frisked by a teammate amid recent controversy surrounding the program.
“It’s not appropriate,” Tide coach Nate Oats told reporters after the game. “It’s been addressed and I can assure you it definitely will not happen again.” Miller, a freshman from Antioch, Tenn., has been linked to the Jan. 15 shootout in Tuscaloosa involving former teammate Darius Miles and a friend of Miles’, Michael Davis. The shooting resulted in the death of 23-year-old mother Jamea Harris. Miles and Davis were charged with capital murder, and Miles has since been removed from the Crimson Tide basketball team. The case will go to a grand jury.
