Miller played the entire decade in Indiana, averaging 21 points, 3.2 assists, 3.1 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 35.7 minutes per game, shooting .482/.405/.884.

He had the most 3-pointers in the 1990s with 1,543 and was seventh in the decade with 16,319 points, 12th with an average of 21 points per game, 14th with a 3-point percentage of .405 and eighth with a free-throw percentage of .884.
