1. Adam Miller – No. 33

Adam Miller is one of the top targets for the Illini since before Brad Underwood was the head coach. This kid can do everything on the basketball court and that is why he is one of the top players in the country.

The new Rivals rankings have Miller still in the top 40. They now list him as a 6-foot-3, 165-pound shooting guard who is rated as a four-star recruit and is the No. 33 player in the class of 2020.

Miller is easily the Illini’s top target for 2020. This kid is from Morgan Park High School in Chicago, Illinois, and he also plays for the Mac Irvin Fire during AAU basketball. Illinois has been recruiting him since his days with Peoria Manual. Miller is a big one for the Illini.

It is hard to determine where Miller will end up. FanCast has him at 67-percent to Illinois, but he continues to get scholarship offers weekly. His recruitment will be interesting to see play out. I am sure more information will start to pick up as time goes on.

One benefit Illinois has right now is the fact they have two players who both played for the Mac Irvin Fire. One of those players – Da’Monte Williams – also played with Miller at Manual as well.
