TCU men’s basketball signee Miles named state’s top Class 5A player
The state’s best Class 5A basketball player is headed to TCU next season.
Lancaster’s Mike Miles, a TCU signee, was named the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches (TABC) Class 5A Player of the Year on Monday.
Miles earned the recognition after helping the top-ranked Tigers to a 36-1 record as a senior and trip to the state tournament. He averaged 21.4 points, four rebounds, four assists and three steals per game. He’s regarded as a four-star prospect by ESPN.
Miles joins a TCU program that will have point guard minutes available after losing senior Edric Dennis. Francisco Farabello is the top option after playing in 30 games, including seven starts, as a true freshman. Junior-to-be RJ Nembhard also saw time at point guard last season.
