Ranked as the No.1 recruit in her class by ESPN, shooting guard Azzi Fudd carried UConn to the national championship game in her Freshman year. She has also been awarded the National Player of the Year honor. In 2022, she became a member of the Big East All-Freshman Team.

In a span of the last two years, Azzi has inked several NIL (name, image, likeness) deals with different brands. These endorsements contribute to her annual value of $ 152000. In September 2021, she signed endorsement deals with Chipotle as their ‘Real Food for Real Athletes’ ambassador. Then two months after that in November, she also became an equity partner for BioSteel Sports Nutrition.

She also wrote in her Twitter/X post, “Maintaining my hydration is critical not only to my life on the court but also in class. @biosteelsports is a brand and product I believe in. Clean. Healthy. Hydration. Excited to officially join #TeamBioSteel.”

Further in December, she signed a multidimensional partnership with 4-time NBA Champion Stephen Curry’s brand – SC30 Inc. The partnership includes a sponsorship deal and personal mentoring from Stephen Curry himself. As reported by Boardroom, Fudd is representing the Curry line of shoes, as she is perceived as the ‘Face of the Future’ by the brand.
