He has also played for the Memphis Grizzlies, Minnesota Timberwolves, Washington Wizards, Miami Heat, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Denver Nuggets.
He’s doing it in one place that by all accounts he despises: the spotlight. “Very selfless. Mike Miller, who took over for David Fizdale on an interim basis midway through the 2019-20 season, won’t be retained by New York Knicks head coach … Miller played college ball at East Texas State, helping to lead the squad to the 1984 Lone Star Conference championship.

Former Knicks interim coach Mike Miller is unlikely to return to the Knicks as he explores other coaching opportunities, according to a source.

He lasted six years at Southwest Texas, winning two Southland Conference titles and earning Conference Coach of the Year honors in 1997, when the Bobcats went to the NCAA Tournament but lost in the first round.“Some of the things he stressed to us he also lived by,” said Donte Mathis, who played for Miller at Southwest Texas before playing 13 years overseas. They could also walk in at the end of the year and say, ‘You’ve done a helluva job, you’re our coach.’“Mike is a no-nonsense, positive guy.
