“I can imagine their parents are sitting back and saying, ‘Oh my God, what did we do? How were we able to provide this kind of experience for our children’?” said CBS Sports Analyst Tracy Wolfson once about Gabriela Jaquez. The Jaquez family already boasted an exceptional NBA player in Miami Heat’s Jaime Jaquez Jr. Now, the success of the Heat star’s younger sister with the UCLA Bruins has given the household more bragging rights. Along with being a key part of the roster that went on a Cinderella run in 2021, Gabriela is now a part of the squad that reached the Final Four of the March Madness tournament for the first time in the program’s history. While players like Lauren Betts and Kiki Rice majorly contributed to this effort, the 9.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 2.3 assists Gabriela averaged in the last 4 games are significant too.
Given her 3-season-long experience with the Bruins that helped transform the team from underdog status to major NCAA contender and her status as a dynasty player, Gabriela Jaquez must have some major NIL deals under her name, right? Well, if you don’t know about them, then read on to find out.
What are Gabriela Jaquez’s NIL deals as of 2025?
According to On3, Gabriela Jaquez has signed multiple deals since her high school days and when she first started playing for the UCLA Bruins back in 2022. The first brand she partnered with was Tricolor Holdings. She wasn’t the only member of the Jaquez family the brand aligned with, as it also signed Jaime Jaquez Jr. Back then, Jaime was the one playing for the UCLA Bruins men’s division, while his sister was still in high school.
Tricolor Holdings released a short film back in March 2022, which featured the Jaquez family discussing their multiple generations. Jaime gave credit to his Mexican American heritage and the example of his grandparents and parents for helping instill in him his work ethic. Tricolor Holdings described the deal as something it envisions “as a long-running series showcasing Hispanic athletes across all the NCAA’s divisions whose commitment, success, and life stories embody the immigrant experience.”
Gabriela next partnered with an entity many of you would have heard of: Fortnite. Back in June 2022, she posted a video on her official Instagram account that showed her and Jaime playing the popular online game. Through the video, she promoted the new Zero Build that Fortnite had launched. Gabriela also added a caption to the post that read, “WE LOVE @fortnite !! #epicpartner.”
In March 2023, MarketPryce partnered up with the entire UCLA Bruins squad, thereby adding another deal to Gabriela’s brief but already impressive list. The NIL agreement included 12 student-athletes from the Bruins, then ranked No. 17 in the country and the runners-up at the Pac-12 Conference tournament. Michael Ehrlich, head of athlete engagement for MarketPryce, revealed that the company onboarded the Bruins with an all-team TikTok competition that compensated the winning team. Back then, the Bruins had set a 25-9 win record. Unfortunately, the team could not make it past the ‘Sweet 16’ stage that year.
Gabriela Jaquez had also partnered up with CAA Sports at one point in time. Unfortunately, no detailed information is given about this NIL deal, except for a social media post put out by CAA Basketball back in May 2023. The last deal the player signed was with Campus Ink back in May 2024.

Gabriela played in the 2022 Jordan Brand Classic with both Rice and Londynn Jones, who would also become her Bruins teammate in the future.
What is Gabriela Jaquez’s net worth and salary?
Not much information is known about Gabriela Jaquez’s net worth in the public domain. The player does not have a fixed salary yet. After all, she still plays at the collegiate level. If all goes well, Gabriela Jaquez could enter the WNBA soon, ensuring that both brother and sister were playing at a pro level. Before that could happen, however, Gabriela has to do her best to ensure she walks away with at least one NCAA title before declaring for the WNBA draft.
