Thanks in part to a big boost from Antioch’s Brandon Miller, the Charlotte Hornets are one win away from making their first playoff appearance in over a decade.

The Hornets downed the visiting Miami Heat 127-126 in overtime in a play-in game Tuesday, with Miller supplying 23 points (including five three pointers), five rebounds, five assists and two blocks.
