Aaron Marquez Miles (born April 13, 1983) is an American retired professional basketball player. He played college basketball for the Kansas Jayhawks. Standing at 6 ft 1 in (1.85 m), he played at the point guard position. Miles is currently an assistant coach for the Florida Gulf Coast Eagles men's basketball team.

Miles played for the Jefferson Democrats in Northeast Portland. The Democrats won the 2000 4A Oregon state championship, beating Tualatin 58-44, and capping a 28-0 season. The Democrats finished the year with a No. 4 national ranking and several other players went on to play in college, such as Michael Lee (Kansas), Thomas Gardner (Missouri), and Brandon Brooks (USC).

After being named the Oregon 4A High School basketball player of the year in the state of Oregon as well as McDonald's Morgan Wooten National Player of the Year, Miles attended the University of Kansas, where he starred at the point guard position for the Kansas Jayhawks men's basketball team. He helped lead the Jayhawks to two consecutive Final Four appearances in 2002 and 2003 and an appearance in the 2003 national championship game. He is the all-time assists leader (with 954 career assists) of both Kansas and the Big 12 Conference. He was named to the All-Big 12 Team in both 2004 and 2005.

He was also named to the All-Big 12 Defensive Team 3 times and he finished his college career in 8th place in NCAA history in assists and also in 2nd place all time in Kansas history in steals.

Miles signed in September 2005, as an undrafted rookie free agent with the NBA's Golden State Warriors for the 2005-06 season, but was released in January 2006, before his contract became guaranteed. He played for the Fort Worth Flyers in the NBA Development League for the remainder of that season. There, he teamed with his Kansas class of 2005 teammate Keith Langford.
