Or further afield, NFL or hockey or soccer, what have you.

In the college arena, athletes can now earn money from endorsements and appearances, and they can also get paid directly by universities.
What impact have you seen from that shift on the next generation of athletes coming into the NBA and how they view themselves as businessmen?
Part of the Boston Exchange, when you announced it, was to have physical space available to help support the entrepreneurs that came into that incubator accelerator program and their business aspirations and to really cultivate an innovation ecosystem.
Can you talk about that goal and why it was part of the Boston Exchange?
You also expanded the exchange to California's Bay Area where you attended the University of California at Berkeley in partnership with Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd.
How is that going and what insights have you gained when comparing the programs across the two coasts?
You started live streaming on Twitch last summer and you've continued to do so through the season.
And we actually streamed part of this conversation on your Twitch channel.
Can you talk about what motivated that decision and why you've chosen to do that on that platform?
Well, we've covered so many different topics today, but I would be remiss if I didn't ask you about your Juice Foundation, which aims to bridge the opportunity gap for youth in underserved communities.
And we have a very business-focused audience here, and one of the areas you focus on with that is financial literacy.
So I wondered if you could just address why that's one of your focuses and why that in particular is an area where you think will help bridge the opportunities.
Well, we'll all be staying tuned.
So thank you so much, Jalen.
