Olivia Miles is on pace to become the first rookie starter in WNBA history to shoot 50/40/90 for a full debut season, while running the offense for the league's best team. This film breakdown looks at what makes the Minnesota Lynx rookie a legitimate MVP candidate: the pull-up three, the hop gather, the pick and roll footwork, and passing vision that's already among the best in the league.
We break down her shooting mechanics from the ground up, why her chemistry with Kayla McBride is producing wide open threes, how Cheryl Reeve's Spain pick and roll sets her up to pick apart defenses, and the move that blew by A'ja Wilson to ice the game against the Aces.
