A former college player who played five seasons professionally in Germany, Jessie Miller begins her third year as assistant coach with the Indiana Fever.
It is Miller’s first WNBA coaching position, after serving ten seasons in an operations and video capacity with the Chicago Sky. Pokey Chatman brought Miller from her staff in Chicago where she spent the previous two years as the club’s video coordinator and aided in player development. Miller managed opponent scouting operations and video coaching with the Sky, participating in daily practices at home, and on the road.
Miller coached with DJK Brose Bamberg in Bamberg, Germany, during the 2016-17 season, her first year as an assistant coach, following five years playing with the team.
A captain and four-year starter at Illinois-Chicago, Miller helped the Flames to the WNIT before playing overseas with DJK Brose Bamberg, from 2010-15.
“I’m excited about adding Jessie to our coaching staff,” said Chatman who spent the past six seasons leading the Sky. “Having watched her grow over the past six years, I am confident she will impact our opponent scouting/preparation, player development, and in-game strategy. She understands the league and will be key as we continue to build on the success of our franchise.”
A native of Burnsville, Minn., Miller received a B.S. in kinesiology from UIC in 2010. She has continued post-graduate coursework in Bamberg.
