Oladipo shared the post on his Instagram stories with a caption that stated, “Invest in someone that is going to make you greater. Not just in your craft but every way. We look at it like it’s Taylor Swift. Yes, you’re right for looking at it that way but what about the things we don’t see.”

“It’s not just her coming to the games that’s contributing to his success. It’s a whole different mentality now. She is making him better and challenging him in more than one way, we just see it in his play. Invest in someone that is going to make you greater in the areas of your life you want to be in.”

“Life is too short to settle. Have a queen that can rule with you, not just beside you.”
