Report: Olivia Miles entering transfer portal, foregoing WNBA draft
Notre Dame star Olivia Miles will forgo the 2025 WNBA Draft and enter the transfer portal, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania.
Miles was widely projected to be the No. 2 overall pick in the draft behind UConn's Paige Bueckers. The Seattle Storm own the second selection.
The 22-year-old had a career-best scoring year in 2024-25, averaging 15.4 points while adding 5.8 assists, 5.6 rebounds, and 1.4 steals. Her 3-point percentage shot up dramatically, rising from 22.8% in 2022-23 to 40.6% this past campaign.
Miles missed all of the 2023-24 season due to a knee injury.
No. 3 Notre Dame lost to No. 2 TCU in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament on Saturday. The Fighting Irish lost two of their last games in the regular season and were eliminated in the second round of the ACC tourney.
Miles earned second-team All-American nods in 2023 and 2025.
