Olivia Miles Faces Pivotal Decision on WNBA Draft vs. College Return

Projected as the No. 2 pick, the Notre Dame guard weighs professional aspirations against her love for college and ongoing recovery from injuries.

Olivia Miles, a standout guard for Notre Dame, remains undecided about entering the 2025 WNBA draft or returning for her final college season.
Miles is projected as the No. 2 pick by the Seattle Storm but has expressed uncertainty due to her attachment to college and readiness for the professional league.
The 22-year-old played through an ankle injury during the NCAA tournament and is recovering from a prior knee injury that sidelined her for the 2023-24 season.
She averaged 15.4 points, 5.8 assists, and 5.6 rebounds during the 2024-25 season, solidifying her status as a top prospect.
The WNBA draft is set for April 14, 2025, and while players are encouraged to decide eligibility within 48 hours of their last game, some flexibility is allowed.
