- NBA Wallpaper: Reggie Miller #31


#31 Reggie Miller


- selected by the Indiana Pacers in the first round (11th pick overall) of the 1987 NBA Draft;

- played 18 years in the same team – Indiana Pacers;

- World Champion gold medallist and Olympic gold medallist;


- Reggie played more games with the same team than all but two players in NBA history, John Stockton and Karl Malone of the Utah Jazz.

The most prolific 3-point shooter in NBA history, Miller is No. 1 all-time in 3-pointers attempted (6,321) and made (2,506). He is the franchise's all-time leader in scoring and assists and stands 14th on the NBA's all-time scoring list.

Reggie said: «I showed up each and every day to play. I played in 80 percent of my games, maybe more. I played hurt. You never knew when someone was coming to an Indiana Pacers basketball game for the first time – maybe on a dare, maybe they had just gotten tickets – but you never knew if they were coming for the first time. And I always wanted that person to go away thinking, "Man, who was that 31? He's a really great player." I always wanted them to remember that they had an enjoyable experience when they saw the Indiana Pacers play, and that always drove me to come to the gym early, get my warmup done early, mentally prepare, watch my tape, get ready and it's worked for 18 years.»
