Jamie Shaw reported that Louisville has reached out to Millender, along with other high profile schools like Seton Hall, Washington State, Florida, and Oklahoma State.
Louisville could use another ball handler like Millender. While Hepburn will likely get the start it is never a bad thing to have competition for the starting spot. Not to mention having a valuable backup in Millender.
If Millender were to commit to Louisville he would come in as a 5-foot 11-inch point guard who averaged 9.1 points, 3.3 assists, and an impressive 43% stroke from the perimeter last season.
Kelsey seems to be looking for quality players around the country, and the roster will likely be finished during the ladder part of next month.
