They are already making a ton of money? I think by next year we will have the depth to make another run.

Neither will play in the WNBA so where will they go? Saying that , I think both are gone.

I actually think they’ll both stay.

Try and improve draft stock and get paid more than they would hypothetically in the wnba. Not sure what the status of their degree progress is though. Might as well knock that out too.

I think its hilarious that they would even leave. They will make more in NIL then they will ever make in the WNBA in a year. shite will there even be an WNBA in 10 years when it continues to lose millions???

If I were in their seat I would meet with my financial advisor and talk about which is more profitable in the long run. I’d say for both, that is staying in college. Angel probably making over half a mil a year in NIL. Those ads will probably stop flowing when she is a middle of the pack WNBA player

Just sweeten the NIL package pure and simple. Grad school is calling.

I would think HVL doesn’t even make a roster. Mulkey said she isn’t going to influence those decisions tho. Their advisors will probably have to convince them that it’s not worth taking the leap.

I don't understand why any women's player would opt for the draft. They can probably make more with NIL at LSU and will fade into obscurity in the WNBA

My guess is they’re coming back. Not saying I like this but here’s my thought. In todays college sports why wouldn’t they act like they were leaving. They’re probably looking for more NIL money.

Don't know about HVL. But, Reese will take a pay cut to play in the WNBA.

I don't know about HVL's future.

Reese, while she may play in the WNBA for a bit, I think has a huge future in sports. I can easily see her hosting sportscenter or doing analysis in 5-10 years.

I can honestly see Reese being everything that people Jamele Hill was going to be, before Hill was shown to be a wacko far-left race baiter.

The smart play I think is to get a masters degree of some sort while collecting NIL and going for another title (which will make them even more famous).

I don't think either will have a long WNBA career.

To play pro Reese needs to get better so staying would benefit her. HVL at 5'4, I really don't see her making it at all in the WNBA. However, its been said HVL has a good mind for the game so who knows maybe coaching is in her future.
