McMiller, a product of Silver Spring, Md., is one of the top-ranked basketball players in the class of 2024. The baller, who has garnered a massive social media following for her ball-handling skills and ability to score, is currently ranked No. 6 nationally in ESPN’s rankings.
“I’m inspired by both of my parents. I get my creativity from my dad and my grandmother, which carries over to my dribbling,” McMiller said in a statement. “I’m always in the gym with my mom and dad working on my game. It’s a dream come true being with the brand that stands for the same passion that I have for the game. I look forward to encouraging basketball players to use their creativity and platform to define their purpose.”
