BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Olivia Miles has decided to enter the transfer portal and play another college season instead of going to the WNBA, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity Monday night because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly on the matter.
The 5-foot-10 guard had spent her entire college career at Notre Dame and was a projected lottery pick in the draft, which takes place in New York on April 14. Instead, she’ll join the more than 1,000 women’s basketball players in the portal and will be one of the most sought-after.
ESPN was first to report Miles’ decision.
Asked about her plans after the Irish lost to TCU in the Sweet 16 of the women’s NCAA Tournament on Saturday, Miles said she wasn’t sure what she would decide.
“I literally have no idea. I need to make a few calls and talk to some people,” Miles said. “I’m very blessed because I’m in a great position.”
