Top 5 richest Miami Hurricanes based on NIL

5. Hanna Cavinder

Hanna and Haley Cavinder have had an interesting college basketball journey but are ready to play their final season together at Miami in 2024-25. The twins starred at Gilbert High School in Arizona before playing three seasons at Fresno State where Hanna averaged at least 14.5 points each year.

Her numbers weren’t as steady in her first season at Miami, but Hanna was part of a team that reached the Elite Eight in 2023. Hanna briefly retired from basketball but is now back in the fold in South Beach as the Hurricanes look to make another run in 2024-25. Hanna has also excelled off the court since she and her sister arrived at Miami, adding to an impressive social media presence containing 5.3 million followers overall, including 4.5 million on TikTok. 

The sisters are most notable for their videos on TikTok that have helped lead to countless NIL partnerships, beginning with a deal alongside Boost Mobile when NIL first launched in July 2021. Hanna’s NIL valuation stands at $863,000, ranking in the top 100 among college athletes and No. 4 in women’s basketball. Some of her most notable deals have come with WWE, Raising Cane’s, Campbell’s Chunky Soup, Intuit TurboTax and Victoria’s Secret PINK. She also recently landed another deal with Under Armour, a company she and Haley have been partnered with since 2022.
