Olivia Miles will be joining two professional basketball leagues this week.
The TCU star signed a multi-year deal with Unrivaled on Sunday. Miles was already a part of the Future is Unrivaled class of 2025, an NIL sponsorship of 14 of the best players in college basketball. Now, she will play for Unrivaled in 2027 and is the first rookie to sign a contract for next season. She has not yet been assigned to a club.
Miles’ offensive game is tailor-made for 3-on-3, given how often she runs ball screens and operates with lots of space in the middle of the floor. She led the ACC in assists for three seasons at Notre Dame before transferring to TCU. Miles also has the requisite flair for the Miami league: Who can forget her crossover on Paris Clark in the Sweet 16 and the subsequent celebration?
“I couldn’t be more excited to join the long list of incredible players playing in Unrivaled,” Miles said in a statement. “This league is building something special for the women’s game and I’m excited to be a part of its long-term growth. I can’t wait to hit the floor next winter to compete alongside the absolute best in the world.”
Miles is also one of 15 invitees to Monday’s WNBA Draft, where is she is expected to be among the top three players selected.

Unrivaled had a sizable WNBA rookie presence in the 2026 season, with the top four picks from the 2025 WNBA Draft (Paige Bueckers, Dominique Malonga, Sonia Citron and Kiki Iriafen) all participating. With Miles already on board, there could be another youth infusion in 2027. Lauren Betts, Azzi Fudd, Flau’jae Johnson, Ta’Niya Latson and Kiki Rice were all also in the Future is Unrivaled class, and the quintet will be joining Miles in New York at the WNBA Draft.
