Angel Reese is breaking barriers far and wide with her recent outbursts on the court. After nagging the national trophy by winning the 2023 NCAA Tournament, she has skyrocketed in popularity and her “Bayou Barbie” persona is slowly getting more attention. Either way, her talent speaks for itself and whatever she has earned over the years, Bayou Barbie is more than deserving of it.
Several athletes like her have been involved in NIL deals. These name, image, and likeness deals are being taken up by college athletes across the nation to earn themselves compensation for promoting the brand. Similarly, the Iowa Hawkeyes’ Caitlin Clark has also earned a large sum of revenue via these NIL deals. Several companies like McDonald’s, Nike, and Xfinity have been approaching such athletes.
Angel Reese is certainly no stranger to this business. She has been actively signing deals with big-name brands across the United States. So far, Reese has racked up almost a million dollars in net worth due to these deals. Ever since winning the NCAA title, brands have approached her with bigger deals. Angel’s following has also shot up due to the insane number of people who bought into the hype about the recent NCAA Finals. The hype was real and Reese won the lottery.
