ICYMI: MiLaysia Fulwiley Signs NIL Deal With Curry Brand
South Carolina women's basketball star MiLaysia Fulwiley has reportedly agreed to a NIL Deal with the brand of future Basketball Hall-Of-Famer Stephen Curry.
It's a great time to be a women's college basketball fan, not just because of the fact that March Madness is set to begin next week, but also due to the youth movement that's taking place as far as star power in the sport goes. South Carolina Gamecock MiLaysia Fulwiley is one of several freshmen that's typically brought up in those conversations due to her electrifying play-style that, when clicking on all cylinders, makes her almost unstoppable on both ends of the floor.

Going back to Fulwiley's days in high school basketball, she's had a relationship with Golden State Warriors guard, and renowned shooter Stephen Curry, participating and subsequently lighting up several camps he's run for women's basketball players. That relationship is now paying dividends for MiLaysia on the business side, as it was first reported by NBA Insider Shams Charania on Friday morning that the South Carolina native has signed a multi-year NIL deal with the Curry Brand, become the first collegiate athlete to have such a deal. This is the second such deal that Fulwiley has received this week, after her garlic butter sauce was launched by a local seafood restaurant this past Wednesday.
