Miami Heat player: Torn between playoffs and newborn daughter in ICU
Miller, who’d been waiting his entire 11-year NBA career for a chance at a championship, began shuttling back and forth between the arena and his baby’s bedside.
“I missed practices. The whole Chicago series is a blur, really. So it was show up and play as hard as you can, wish for the best, and go right back to the hospital,” he said.
