Incoming USC Trojans point guard Isaiah Collier, considered the top national prospect among the high school class of 2023, appears to be ready to capitalize on his reputation sooner rather than later.

Per Pete Nakos of On3NIL.com, the 6'4" 18-year-old out of Murrieta, Georgia has been signed by top talent agency CAA Sports. CAA, one of the most respected reps in the game, will help handle Collier's Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) merchandise offers.

Nakos reports that Collier boasts a $596K On3 NIL Valuation at present. While an impressive number on its own for an amateur athlete, it pales in comparison to the reported $7.1 million being earned by Collier's fellow incoming USC freshman guard, Sierra Canyon School alum Bronny James.

As a pro prospect, Collier's relative positional size and strength are projected to abet him mightily at the next level. He's also seen as one of the better passers among his class. He is expected to be a high-level lottery pick in the 2024 NBA draft, should he opt to declare as a one-and-done athlete.

Nakos notes that Collier will be joining some very wealthy NBA vets at CAA, including 12-time All-Star Golden State Warriors point guard Chris Paul (that will never not be a weird phrase to type), eight-time Los Angeles Clippers All-Star Paul George, 2019 No. 1 draft pick Zion Williamson, and well-compensated Washington Wizards combo forward Kyle Kuzma.
