Oliver Miller, the big man who helped Arkansas reach the Final Four before becoming the No. 22 pick in the 1992 NBA Draft, died Wednesday at 54. Miller, a talented all-around center, spent nine seasons in the NBA, bouncing between five teams.

A star at Arkansas whose NBA career included helping the Suns to the 1993 Finals, Miller had an unusual physique for a basketball player that belied impressive athleticism and feel for the game.

Oliver Miller was known as the "The Big O" for his 6-foot-9, 280-pound frame that ballooned to well over 300 pounds during his NBA career.
