Apr. 20—Eastern Washington continued its effort to replenish its men's basketball roster on Monday when it announced the commitment of Jamil Miller. In transferring from Kennesaw State with three years of eligibility remaining, Miller is also coming home.

He grew up in Spokane and played at Gonzaga Prep through his junior season before transferring to Combine Academy in North Carolina for his final season in 2023-24. Kennesaw State is in Georgia, about 250 miles from Combine Academy. Miller — a 6-foot-6, 199-pound guard — started 27 of 33 games during the 2024-25 season as a freshman at Kennesaw.

He averaged 23. 5 minutes, 6. 8 points and 4.

8 rebounds while making 47. 3% of his shots but just 52. 8% (47 of 89) of his attempts at the free-throw line.

He didn't play in 2025-26 and then entered the transfer portal earlier in April. "Jamil will be an immediate impact piece for us in 2026 — 27," EWU head coach Dan Monson said in a team release. "His ability to defend, rebound and score in a variety of ways will translate right away.
