Does she get invited to tryout for an NBA team? Drafted by someone in a late round?

Huh.Yes. Sports is entertainment and that would add entertainment value.
Huh.
Is she physical enough for the NBA though?
But, yes, I would pay to go see her play even as an experiment or as a publicity stunt.
Europe is more physical.You asked a different question. No, I also don't see her being physical enough, especially for a long NBA season. Could do better in Europe?
As great as Nancy Lieberman was, her play in one of the men's minor leagues, USBL, was nothing to brag about. It just doesn't work, except in MSM.Years ago there was a girl named Ann Meyers who played at UCLA, was the Caitlin Clark of her time. IIRC she got a tryout with an NBA team. Didn’t make it of course.
She is not better than any male basketball player in any professional league on the planet.Does she get invited to tryout for an NBA team? Drafted by someone in a late round?
And that is not a criticism or knock on her or her abilities, at all. Physiology and kinetics are what they are.She is not better than any male basketball player in any professional league on the planet.
Exactly! She is extremely skilled and talented, but there is a reason why we have men's and also women's sports.And that is not a criticism or knock on her or her abilities, at all. Physiology and kinetics are what they are.
Or, at least, we used to separate them., but there is a reason why we have men's and also women's sports.
Europe is more physical.

I've talked with other people who also know a lot more about basketball than I do who say the opposite. The context is that in Europe contact fouls are called a lot more. The stuff Burns did pushing other players back would have been a foul on one player or another.
What am I missing?
