Rich Paul:
“I got guys, 22, making $200M over the next 4 or 5 years. I'm constantly telling them that's not a lot of money based upon where you're starting, because you're starting from zero… Not to mention jeans today, the ones they want that they're buying in excess, which they probably don't really need, cost $2,000… No athlete can afford to fly private all the time, yet we see so many athletes on Instagram flying private. I fly Delta.”

Caitlin Clark was not credited with assists on either of these plays, leaving her 2 assists short of the 6th 30 point 10 assist game in WNBA history
It would have been her 2nd such game, more than any player in WNBA history
