The duo of Hanna and Haley Cavinder have been through many ups and downs in their college basketball careers. From announcing their switch to the WWE to both announcing that they are leaving Miami, they have had an adventurous year. However, it seems like their goals for the year are finally set. The twins recently announced their return to Coral Gables for another stormy season. With so many twists and turns in their lives, who are the Cavinder sisters? Let us hear the story of the two popular TikTok celebrities in depth.

The twins were born on January 13, 2001, in South Bend, Indiana. Their parents Katie and Tom Cavinder have two more daughters Brandi and Brooke. Both Hanna and Haley displayed early signs of basketball supremacy. However, several months back, Hanna announced that her college career in sports is now ending. In contrast, Haley Cavinder wanted more time and entered the transfer portal once again.

While she had already committed to TCU, she recently announced her decision to take her name off of the Horned Frogs roster. The primary reason is her sister who also announced her return to Miami for one last eligibility year. Their bond is more important than anything for the two. Hence, they are all set to make some waves with the Hurricanes next season.

Previously, the two young hoopers entered the NCAA environment with Fresno State. With the Bulldogs, Hanna averaged 15.7 points, 3.3 boards, and 3.7 assists. Her twin sister grabbed 18.6 points and 8 rebounds per game in three years with Fresno. Her assisting game was strong too with an average of 4.4 apg in three years.

The two then entered the transfer portal to experience the DI tournament March Madness. Choosing Hurricanes, the double trouble took the team to Elite Eight in their first season with the school. At the U, Haley contributed 12.2 points and 4.9 boards while Hanna lagged with just 3.8 points and 1.3 rebounds. However, they then wished to switch their sport and enter WWE. But the journey did not last long, and both are now representing Florida.

With their next steps set for college basketball, how have the two performed in the business arena?

Hanna and Haley Cavinder in the NIL landscape

The two young talents had already proven their worth on the court. However, they had also amassed a huge number of followers in the meantime. Nevertheless, to keep their NCAA eligibility, the twins, despite being quite influential on social media platforms, could not earn money. Regarded as the face of the NIL movement, the two signed the biggest deals as soon as the NIL ruling was passed in favor of the collegiate athletes in July 2021.

Their very first deal was with Boost Mobile. The same was highly publicized in the famous Times Square in New York. They also joined hands with Six Star Pro Nutrition within midnight of the ruling. Hence, to date, they are considered the first college athletes to punch their names with major endorsement deals under the NIL regulations.

They then signed a huge 6-digit deal with the WWE for both social engagements and physical appearances. The deal eventually led them to switch to wrestling last year. To date, their net worth has reached a whopping $2 million.

The Cavinder sisters are surely sitting on a gold mine when it comes to both their on-court skills and NIL deals. With another year for the college basketball world to enjoy their performances, it will be interesting to see how far they can take the Hurricanes.
