Kaitlin Clark's WNBA salary is only going to be $76,000.

If that is accurate, Iriafen has every reason to go to graduate school and take advantage of NIL.  Even though she would continue to be able to make money off of endorsement deals if she goes to the WNBA, those would actually be endorsement deals, and will not be underwritten by wealthy donors, and the actual WNBA salary would be a rounding error.  So, Iriafen might make nearly as much (maybe even more) as a college player as in the WNBA.

It is indeed accurate. She will make in her four year initial contract $338K, less than half of the $750K Iriafen supposedly will make for one year at school X. I am of course certain that none of that money distorted the acceptance process at school X, and similarly have not and will not result in her receiving atypical benefits.
