## Resource

Norman Powell, now a 12-year NBA veteran and All-Star with the Chicago Bulls, reveals why he turned down UCLA football: NFL player protections—especially around CTE and long-term health—are lacking compared to the NBA’s financial security and transparency. Despite his deep roots in both sports, Powell’s basketball career paid off big, earning him a $45M contract after averaging over 21 points per game. He still loves watching football—but his firsthand experience makes him a vocal critic of how the league treats its athletes.
