Miller, born Reginald Wayne Miller, was born Aug. 24, 1965, in Riverside, Calif. He attended UCLA. Miller was chosen by the Pacers with the 11th pick in the 1st round of the 1987 NBA Draft.

He went on to play his entire 18-year career with the Pacers, earning a reputation for his precision three-point shooting.

Here's a shot of Miller at Pacers practice in 2001.

Miller is pictured here, in 2003, hugging Bulls legend Michael Jordan.

Miller took part in the 2005 500 Festival parade.

Miller's last game was on May 19, 2005, at then-Conseco Fieldhouse, when the Pacers lost 88-79 to the Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

When he was taken out with 15.7 seconds to play, the crowd gave him a final standing ovation, and the Pistons called a timeout so the Detroit bench could join the ovation.

Miller, who now works as a NBA commentator for TNT, is one of five Pacers to have his jersey -- No. 31 -- retired by the team.

Miller will be inducted in the hall of fame Friday night. "It's starting to sink in, 'I'm in the HOF!!'" he tweeted early Thursday.
