Darius Miller

[KCKUKFan]

Too many players get down when their personal performance suffers, especially their scoring. By nature young stars are too self centered. The best way for Darius to break his slump is to spend his playing time making his teammates better and forget about how well or poorly he himself is doing. Do the little things, rebound, play defense, fight for loose balls, pass to the open teammate and your personal slump will disappear as if by magic. It's all part of growing up! Try emulating Landon Slone.

Completely disagree in regards to Darius.

If anything, he wasn't shooting ENOUGH earlier in the season. There were numerous instances where he had open shots or drives to the basket and he forced an unnecessary pass instead. Sometimes they connected and looked great and sometimes they didn't. I think somewhere along the line, he stopped looking for his shot, so when he did shoot it, he began thinking too much about it... and that brings us to where we are now.

Darius Miller is NOT, nor has he shown any evidence of being, self-centered or a "scoring only" type player so far in his Kentucky career.

His troubles lie in knowing how much he can contibute and make the people around him better with his play, and it's not happening as quickly as he'd like.
