Brad Miller, Facing Retirement, Hits One Final Three, Then Cries

It hasn't been an easy season for 13-year NBA veteran Brad Miller, who announced his impending retirement last month. He's only been averaging 9 minutes and 2.2 points per game with the Timberwolves. Nonetheless, in the final game of his career tonight, Miller tried to go out in style. After a couple of airballs in the first half, Miller finally nailed one last three-pointer in the fourth quarter, to the delight of an appreciative Target Center crowd.

Two minutes later, when Miller was subbed out for the final time, he broke down in tears on the bench. Godspeed, Brad Miller. Mostly, we'll miss the cornrows.
