I'm not sure if this is known (I don't think I've heard a number but could be wrong).
However, I thought I saw an interview with Beach's lawyer where she mentioned the career earnings of the next player selected after Beach in the first round of the draft as a what-could-have-been.
It looks like that player was Tyler Myers, who, after his ELC, signed a 7-year, $38.5 million contract and then a five-year, $30 million contract. That could just be part of the claim for lost earnings, not to mention other damages claimed. So I think the ballpark would be well upwards of $70M, maybe $75M or so.
