The answers are below; Down 2’s clue wording is unclear in the available listing, so it is identified by its answer rather than presented as a confirmed transcription.
Across answers

- Dice game for sidewalk gamblers: CRAPS
- Gently gives a 👉: POKES
- Lionel Messi’s jersey number: TEN
Down answers

- Answer: ASPEN. The available Forbes listing includes an unclear string in this clue, so its exact wording cannot be confirmed here.
- Doctor you visit for a checkup, for short: PCP
- Letter that can be added to the fronts of 4-, 6- and 7-Across to make new words: ESS
How the ESS wordplay works
Adding ESS to the beginning of three Across answers creates new words: PARSE becomes SPARSE, CRAPS becomes SCRAPS, and POKES becomes SPOKES.
