Madison Booker joins the Courtside Club! She sits down for an in-depth conversation about her journey, tournament aspirations, and what it takes to be a top competitor on the court. Madison breaks down the importance of every possession in March Madness, and why great defense can carry a team in March.
Reflecting on the SEC Championship loss, Madison shares the powerful message from her coach that fueled her motivation moving forward. “It shouldn’t be easy,” she says, acknowledging that “leading from the front is very hard. There’s already a target on your back.” Madison feels confident about Texas’ chances heading into the big dance.
Madison also ranks the top five NBA, WNBA, and college careers of all time, and opens up about her WNBA aspirations. Off the court, Madison dives into her hobbies, talking her love for Legos and the chaos of building a Gotham set while her cats tried to destroy it 😂
