Braden Smith Breaks NCAA Career Assist Record, Secures State Farm NIL Deal
Braden Smith broke the NCAA all-time career assists record with his 1,077th dime (vs Queens) and then signed an NIL deal with State Farm as part of its 'With the Assist' campaign, expanding a growing NIL portfolio that includes Great Clips and NBA 2K sponsorships; his $1.1M On3 NIL Valuation ranks him among the top college basketball earners, as Purdue advances to face Miami after a 26-point, eight-assist Round of 64 win.
