Marta on the move again
In the women's game, it is a really interesting dynamic. Olivia Miles opted out of the WNBA draft (projected as a 2 or 3) to use her 5th year of eligibility. As a WNBA rookie, her salary is capped at around 95K. Through the NIl, she will easy get 3 to 5 times that. I look for this to become a pattern. On that note, surprised Bueckers did not stay. She make a cool million by transferring to USC or UCLA.Ride that gravy train to the end of the line!

True, but ND is losing Citron, Westbeld, King and others to graduation, as well as three or more to the portal. Ivey will have only three or four players , including HH, left to build around. Bringing in equivalent talent to two or three might be doable, but all of those departing?But she still has a Hidalgo, and that's a player you can build around
