Watch: Reggie Miller's priceless on-air reaction to learning he made NBA's 75th anniversary team

To celebrate 75 years of NBA basketball, the league is putting together an all-time list of the 75 greatest players. And as those names on the list started emerge this week, we saw some great reactions from the selected players.

James Harden seemed genuinely honored when he found out he made the all-time team during a Tuesday press conference. Even the obvious selections like Shaquille O'Neal took the humble approach to getting named to the list.

But for Reggie Miller, TNT's Inside the NBA decided to totally catch him off guard with the honor. And it made for a spectacular reaction.

The pregame show had just aired a segment with Miller interviewing Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry about the 3-point record. When studio host Ernie Johnson welcomed Miller to join the broadcast, Miller was expecting a discussion about Curry. It didn't go that way. Johnson instead told Miller that he made the team too, and it took a few moments for that reality to set in.

Miller was confused at first, but once he realized what the TNT crew was saying, it was jubilation from the Hall of Famer. It really was an amazing reaction all around, and it's a well-deserved honor for Miller.
