Reggie Miller is known universally for his contributions to the game of basketball. The NBA Hall of Famer spent nearly two decades playing for the Indiana Pacers and immediately transitioned to the broadcast booth upon retirement, joining Turner Sports in 2005, where he has remained ever since. His passion for the game when he was a player and now as an analyst is obvious. But Miller has an equal passion for another sport— mountain biking.
On Saturday, Miller will take part in the Life Time Tahoe Trail mountain bike race, one of Life Time's 30 annual cycling and running events. The course stretches 62.1 miles and consists of two laps around Lake Tahoe. Ahead of the race, Miller spoke to Sports Illustrated about his passion for mountain biking and why Life Time events appeal to him. Miller also spoke on JJ Redick's hire by the Los Angeles Lakers, how he would feel if TNT lost NBA media rights, and more.
