Olivia Miles de Notre Dame, a choice among the 2 projected, will enter the NCAA transfer portal rather than declare for the draft of the WNBA

Olivia Miles de Notre Dame is largely projected as the choice n ° 2 of the WNBA recovery.

But it will not be this year.

According to Charania de Shams d’Espn, Miles transmits the draft of the WNBA and will rather enter the NCAA transfer portal.

Miles, 22, played four seasons at Notre Dame and has an eligibility season at the NCAA. This is not clearly a question of the report, why she made the decision. But the attraction of zero opportunities compared to the wages offered by the WNBA could certainly be at stake here.

Paige Bueckers d’Uconn is largely projected as the choice n ° 1 of the next draft, and Miles had to go n ° 2. Instead, she will play a year more at university, perhaps not in Notre-Dame. The Storm of Seattle has the choice n ° 2 in the next draft and will have to look elsewhere.

A 5 -foot goalkeeper 10 inches, miles on average 15.4 points, 5.8 assists, 5.6 rebounds and 1.4 interceptions this season while pulling 48.3% on the field and 40.6% out of 5.3 attempts of 3 points per match. She helped Notre Dame to first equality in ACC with NC State and a seeded n ° 3 in the NCAA tournament. Notre Dame was eliminated on Saturday in Sweet 16 by TCU.

Entering the portal does not mean for certainty that Miles will be transferred from Notre Dame. If she does, she will leave a program again on a 16 -speed race of 16 which is regularly in the national conversation.
