Look: Wes Miller Poses With Younger Brother on Monmouth

CINCINNATI — Saturday's contest between UC Basketball and Monmouth is a family affair. Cincinnati head coach Wes Miller has been game planning all week to stop his younger brother, Walker, from giving UC their first home loss of the season.

Saturday is a chance for Cincinnati to rebound off their only stumble of the year earlier in the week to No. 13 Arkansas. The younger Miller won't make it easy on his older brother. He is one of the players to watch in the scouting report.

This is what college basketball is all about.

The North Carolina transfer averages 15.2 points per game this season, a team-high 8.2 rebounds per game, and leads the Hawks in blocks, denying 1.4 shots per game. At 6-foot-11, 230 pounds, Miller has quite the height advantage over his older brother, and he'll be trying to capitalize on those dimensions throughout the 40 minutes.

One other player to watch on KenPom's 180th-ranked team is 6-foot-5, 185-pound grad student George Papas. He paces Monmouth in points (19.8 PPG) and steals (1.4 SPG) this season; while also leading in floor time (37.5 Minutes per game).

Tipoff from Fifth Third Arena is at 2 p.m. ET on ESPN+.
