sportsJun 28, 202628404

Olivia Miles received a technical foul at the end of the third quarter after arguing a non-call during the Lynx win over the Dallas Wings. The box score posted with the game shows Minnesota defeated Dallas 85-77, Minnesota moving to 15-4, with Miles finishing with 21 points, 8 assists and 3 rebounds. Natasha Howard also had 21 points and 14 rebounds while Kayla McBride scored 17 points, and a separate post lists Caitlin Bueckers with 25 and Azzi Fudd with 21 for Dallas. Social posts accompanying the game highlight Miles’s playmaking, praising her passing and pick-and-roll chemistry with Howard and noting her clutch passes and driving ability. A few posts contrasted the technical with other on-court behavior toward officials, while others celebrated Miles as a top rookie-level talent and primary point guard for the Wings matchup context.

My favorite show in sports right now. Every now & then sports deliver us performers who are more than just athletes, but artists who use the sport as a medium. Olivia already looks like that to me.

Is Olivia Miles the best point guard in basketball? I think she is.

Pick and roll for Olivia Miles, defense stays on the side to protect the pocket pass and then it's a late switch. Weakside pulls in on the roll, skip to McBride for 3.

If I could, I would watch Olivia Miles play for 23 out of 24 hours in the day. She's just an incredible talent to watch.

I appreciate that there won't be 4 days of media coverage and claims of the league being jealous while calling for criminal changes because Olivia Miles got a technical. #WNBA

The Olivia Miles-Natasha Howard pick and roll could probably solve climate change if its powers were properly harnessed. #wnba
