Wagner and Hartenstein are now the highest paid German athletes, surpassing even football/soccer players. Maybe the Lions WR Amon-Ra is still paid more. Point being there is absolutely no financial incentive in female basketball. No parents will steer females toward basketball. There is no money. It´s individual sports like tennis/golf and others.
..but I caught some of the controversy around Team USA, so I watched highlights from the ASG exhibition game and my impression was that Team USA looked outmatched. Only Stewart stood out to me on their team.
