Darius Miles Itching for NBA Return

Filed under: Bobcats MIAMI -- Scoring 26 points in a half-speed, summertime charity game doesn't warrant even a cup of coffee in the NBA , but Darius Miles still had to smile when he looked at the hand-written stat sheet Sunday and saw his numbers. He's coming back. Miles (pictured right, at the Summer Groove charity game), 28, is convinced more than ever that he can make a successful return to the NBA this season, silencing the doctors, the critics and the doubters who wrote him off long ago and reviving a once-promising but disappointing career. "This is the best I've felt in five years,'' Miles said in an interview with FanHouse recently.
