Miller was released by the Nuggets after Tuesday's preseason game against the Trail Blazers, the Denver Post reports.

Analysis:

Miller was the Nuggets' final cut as they trimmed their roster to the league-mandated 15 men. The lengthy (6-foot-11) and athletic forward averaged 15 minutes per contest last season under first-year coach Brian Shaw, but his defensive regression during training camp ended up earning him his walking papers. Alonzo Gee ultimately beat out Miller for the team's last roster spot.
