Top 10 richest California HS basketball players based on NIL

3. Derrion Reid 

The 6-foot-7 senior power forward at Prolific Prep has an NIL valuation of $312,000. 

Reid’s NIL valuation isn’t a surprise given his high ranking and subsequent popularity. He’s ranked as the No. 1 player overall in the Class of 2024 – which has drawn the attention of over 17,000 followers on Instagram so far.

Reid has noted that his dream NIL deal is with a shoe company (Nike, Under Armour, Adidas, Puma, etc). But, making NIL money isn’t at the forefront of his mind.

“NIL wasn’t, in any way, a main factor in the conversation I had (about transferring to Prolific Prep for my senior season), Reid told The Augusta Press. “It was all based on my development, my goals and what path is going to get me there to becoming the player I want to be. I wasn’t given any money to make this decision, and even after the decision was made, I haven’t been given any. This decision and move was strictly basketball-related. Not saying that NIL is not a benefit, because it is something I have the chance to get, but it is not something that was automatically given.”
