Milly Is a triple-threat scoring machine. An aggressive downhill athlete who stays in attack mode for himself or his team. Milly can score at any time but enjoys dropping dimes like candy to fuel and fire up his team. Milly plays with passion and purpose to do whatever he needs to help his team win. Milly is a solid defender too.
The most motivating thing that happened last season that will push Milly forward is being overlooked and nobody taking the time to watch him. So he always thinks about that and it makes him work harder and harder every day. This allows him to play with a chip on his shoulder. Going into this year Milly is just looking to kill everyone, get the right exposure, and coaching to push him to get better. Milly has a whole new mentality entering this season. Melly feels he will be ready to get to the next level no matter what it takes.
Playing AAU for BC Elite (Looking for a new AAU team on a circuit) Milly's goal was getting better no matter what and getting exposure every summer. Milly feels he did that while he continues to keep getting better and better every day, staying hungry and striving for more.
When Milly is on the court something that will light a fire under him is people trying to get in his head. However, it doesn’t work because it doesn’t matter how much you talk, the score and who wins the game will do the talking for Milly. He just goes out, kills it, and keeps his mouth shut, always being humble everywhere he goes.
Milly handles adversity by calming himself down and letting whoever is talking go ahead and run their mouth. He doesn't let anyone get to him. He stays disciplined and does not let little things get to him. He just outworks and overcomes whatever is in his way.
Any coach at any level should know Milly is always going to be ready to play, being a dog on the court hustling, and not letting up off the gas pedal. Milly comes in every game ready to kill whoever is in front of him and not be scared, put LeBron in front of him and he won't back down once you step between the lines.
Milly can see himself playing D1 for sure, having the talent and mentality to get there. It's just waiting to get that opportunity. Milly will not let any coach down. Milly will go to any level of college it doesn’t matter what level, NAIA, JUCO, D3, he just wants to play at the next level and sees nothing wrong with playing at a lower level.
I assess Milly has the fire and skill to thrive wherever he lands. You can't teach DAWG. Knowing Milly is still developing and on the rise, there are no limits to all he can become. We just get to enjoy the show. Stay tuned!
