North Carolina senior guard Alex Miller, after collaborating with her family and the Tar Heel sports medicine staff, has decided to end her playing career effective immediately. Miller, who suffered a torn patellar tendon in a game against Coppin State on Nov. 16, 2007, underwent an extensive rehabilitation process and returned to play in 18 games in 2008-09. "I had to think about my life after basketball," Miller said.
