Message: [QUOTE="huskyd, post: 4370908, member: 6488"] Baffling. Can't seem to separate money from playing. I wrote about exactly this situation at the time of Paige's injury, thinking specifically about Morgan Tuck's case. For Tuck it was about money. She might never get a shot at the pros if her knee finally caved during another year at UConn. So: Tuck wouldn't get a payday and wouldn't play b'ball again. This is a calculated risk. Bueckers risks greater injury if she stays at UConn. That might shut the money spigot and end her days on the court. ESPN asked what Paige would do if she couldn't play anymore. Well, what? Plan B? As Coco argues, she may not come back to Storrs--and understandably. Better to rehab and play in the WNBA. She's already made the case for being the best. My guess: she plays one more season at UConn. Selfish of me? Yeah. [/QUOTE]
