She averaged 19.6 points, 7.3 rebounds and 6.6 assists while shooting 48.8% from the field this season for TCU. (espn.com) Miles posted a 12-point, 16-rebound, 14-assist triple-double in the NCAA first-round win over UC San Diego — noted as her 12th career triple-double and a program mark for assists in that game. (msn.com) She produced a 28-point, 10-rebound, 8-assist performance in a March 28 victory over Virginia that punctuated a run of high-usage, efficient outings in the tournament.

(si.com) Major outlets have slotted her into the top tier of 2026 prospects — CBS Sports lists Miles alongside Awa Fam in a first tier — and multiple mock drafts peg her as a likely top-five pick as the WNBA Draft approaches on April 13, 2026.
