Kneepkens and her future in the WNBA, will she go or entertain NIL deals?
Gianna Kneepkins is a star player for the Utes this year. She is the talk of the town, so much so that many think she is ready for a WNBA career, but there is also a chance that NIL deals could come her way to play on another college team. Of course, that doesn’t mean she won’t stick with the Utes. There’s always a chance she can come back for her senior year. But if the NIL deals start coming, she may very well transfer out of Utah and elsewhere.
My hope is that she sticks around with us. But I can’t blame her if she wants to go elsewhere or take her chances in the WNBA.
What do you think could happen next season? Will Kneepkins stick by the Utes? Or will another team draw her over with a lucrative NIL deal? Or will she end up sticking by use for another year?

I think she is going to stick by us, and play for us one more season. I don’t think she cares about those NIL deals or playing elsewhere. I think she has a love for Utah that she will stick by us until the end.

If she is to do anything, it won’t be to take an offer to play for another school. She could end up deciding to apply for the 2025 WNBA draft, but I don’t see that even. I think she sticks it out with Utah for one final season, and then will get drafted into the WNBA in 2026.

If she is to leave, it’d be to play in the WNBA. I don’t think she will consider any other schools, and she seems very loyal to the Utes.

I wouldn’t hate her if she chose to go to the WNBA or even went for an NIL deal somewhere. But I don’t see her doing the latter. I see her doing the former if anything. The WNBA is a big get, and he could potentially go for the draft this year.

Please stay! 🙁 I can’t stand losing someone with her talent.

Whatever she decides to do, I will respect her choice. I still hope she chooses to stick with us, but can’t blame her if she wants to realize her dream in the big leagues.

I really think she will stick around her senior year and then follow the WNBA route after that.

She will dominate the sport wherever she ends up.

Part of me thinks she might end up leaving, but I hope she sticks with us.
