Matt Barnes Certain NIL Would Lead to More Washout Athletes

Barnes said NIL has created chaos: “NIL is like the Wild Wild West right now.” He recalled Chris Webber saying, “They’re selling my jerseys in stores, I don’t even have money to get a sandwich.” Barnes added many players now chase quick paydays, transfer often, and lack patience, leading to hundreds washing out before lasting in the league.
