The Tennessee Lady Vols will be hosting a very special recruit tonight as 5-star phenom — and No. 6 recruit by ESPN — Kiyomi McMiller will be visiting Rocky Top tonight in their game against No. 1 South Carolina, multiple sources tell The Ball Out.
McMiller, in a word, is extraordinary. Her lightning speed, Kyrie Irving-esque handles, and nuclear scoring ability make her easily one of the hottest prospects in the country. McMiller is especially notable for becoming the first high school athlete to land a Jordan Brand NIL deal! She has already shown that she has the potential to be a game-changer and will be an incredible player at the college level.
“I’m inspired by both of my parents. I get my creativity from my dad and my grandmother, which carries over to my dribbling,” says McMiller. “I’m always in the gym with my mom and dad working on my game. It’s a dream come true being with the brand that stands for the same passion that I have for the game.
I look forward to encouraging basketball players to use their creativity and platform to define their purpose.”

Kiyomi McMiller’s nickname says it all: The Product
“I can give you whatever you need,” she said. “If you need a quick bucket, I got you … People want to see a show. Being creative is the biggest part of my game.” pic.twitter.com/jVfOLJ1ivn— Nick DePaula (@NickDePaula) February 22, 2023
The Lady Vols have a lot of momentum on their side with the recent commitments of top-25 2025 recruit Nyla Brooks and No. 1 recruit in 2027 Finley Chastain, on top of posting their best SEC record since the 2014-15 season, and two players projected to go in the top-10 of this year’s WNBA Draft.
