Audi Crooks has quickly become one of the most talked-about names in women’s college basketball. The upcoming Iowa State junior has not only impressed on the court but has also secured some notable NIL deals.
While she continues to dominate with her play, Crooks is also building her brand and staying true to her roots.
What NIL Deals Has Iowa State Center Audi Crooks Signed?
Audi Crooks, an Iowa State standout and 2023 Miss Iowa Basketball, has mainly stayed true to her roots with her NIL dealings.
Per On3, one of Crooks’ first deals was with ClaimDOC, a patient advocacy company. She represents them in advertisements, participates in community engagement efforts, and takes part in employee events, including serving as a celebrity referee at ClaimDOC’s annual 6-on-6 basketball tournament.
“As an Algona native, I couldn’t be prouder of all that Audi has accomplished during her first year at Iowa State,” ClaimDOC founder Ben Krambeck said after signing Crooks. “I’ve been following Audi since her time at Bishop Garrigan and admired her attitude and success across multiple activities — from sports to music.”
Beyond that, Crooks has also signed deals with the likes of the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Iowa, RAYGUN, and The Iowa State NIL Store. She also inked a deal with the Iowa Pork Producers Association (IPPA) after previously earning the IPPA’s Top Producer Award during the 2023 Iowa girls’ state basketball tournament.
“It’s so cool to kind of come full circle to win that award from the Iowa Pork Producers in high school and now be part of a partnership with Iowa Pork on the advertising side of it,” Crooks said at the time.
