NBA Twitter reacts to Brandon Miller, Scoot Henderson going 2-3: ‘Dame is gone’
After going back and forth, the Charlotte Hornets selected Brandon Miller with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft.
Meanwhile, the Portland Trail Blazers drafted Scoot Henderson with the third pick in the Draft.
Here’s how NBA Twitter reacted.
Brandon Miller shot 30.6% from the field in his last 8 college games.
What an amazing final draft choice by Scottie Pippen's former sidekick Michael Jordan.

All along, the entire Charlotte Hornets organization has been all-in on Brandon Miller — ownership, front office, scouts, coaches. They see him as a perennial future All-Star player.

I cannot believe they just selected Brandon Miller over Scoot Henderson.

Brandon Miller over Scoot Henderson is the right choice by the Hornets. A 6-9 shot-creator and versatile defender over a 6-2 guard. Charlotte will be able to build big lineups alongside Miller and LaMelo Ball, and Miller has P&R playmaking skill to have Ball flourish off-ball.

Victor Wembanyama, Scoot Henderson and Chet Holmgren all in the Western Conference.
So much for conference balance.

Scoot Henderson to the Blazers. So, now what for Damian Lillard? Or is there an Anfernee Simons move to make?

Scoot Henderson > Brandon Miller

if the Charlotte Hornets trade Ja Morant for LaMelo Ball they can run:
PG – Ja Morant
SG – Terry Rozier
SF- James Bouknight
PF – Brandon Miller
C – Miles BridgesThe Felon Five 🔥

Brandon Miller was boo’ed twice by the overwhelming majority of @Hornets fans here in the arena when @espn cameras showed him.
Then Charlotte took him #2 overall and the crowd was stunned.

Is Scoot Henderson going to bring me back to watching the Blazers? Tell me what I need to know about him
I don’t think I can watch if Lillard gets traded tho lol— Big Game Bengal (@BengalYouTube) June 23, 2023
No disrespect, but Brandon Miller over Scoot Henderson is a mistake.
