🏀 Graded 1988 Fleer Reggie Miller #57 Rookie RC Basketball Card PSA 7 Near Mint — A Mid-Grade Specimen of the Indiana Pacers' All-Time Greatest Player, the Hall of Fame Shooter Whose Rivalry With the Knicks, Whose Impossibly Clutch Moments, and Whose Record Career Three-Point Total Changed What the NBA Looked Like From Beyond the Arc

🏀 There are basketball players who make you nervous when the game is close and the ball is in their hands, and then there was Reggie Miller — the specific version of that player whose presence at the three-point line in the final minutes of a game created a dread in opposing fans and opposing coaches that was not quite like anything else the NBA produced during his era. He made shots that should not have gone in. He made them in the most important moments. He made them in ways that turned deficits into leads so quickly that the transition from certain defeat to almost certain victory required a double-take to confirm that what just happened had actually happened.

🏀 He was born in Riverside, California, in a family that produced multiple professional athletes — his sister Cheryl Miller was one of the greatest women's basketball players in history, and the Miller family's athletic legacy is one of the more remarkable in American sports. He played at UCLA, where the talent he brought to the program confirmed the evaluation that had made him a lottery consideration, and the Indiana Pacers selected him 11th overall in the 1987 NBA Draft. He stayed in Indiana for the entirety of his eighteen-year NBA career — never leaving, never seeking a change of scenery, building his legacy in one building and one market and one fanbase that loved him in the specific way that a small market loves a star who chooses to stay.

🏀 His rivalry with the New York Knicks — and specifically with the filmmaker Spike Lee, who held courtside seats at Madison Square Garden and engaged in a public back-and-forth with Miller that elevated their exchanges into something that transcended individual games — became one of the defining narratives of 1990s NBA basketball. The moments produced by that rivalry include "8 points in 8.9 seconds" from the 1994 NBA playoffs — a sequence of events in which Miller scored eight points in the final eight seconds to steal a victory from New York that remains one of the most discussed individual clutch performances in the history of the sport.

🏀 He retired in 2005 with 2,560 career three-point field goals — the all-time NBA record upon his retirement. He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2012.
