USC 5-Star Commit Alijah Arenas Makes Major NIL Announcement

Super Bowl LIX Most Valuable Player Jalen Hurts is a Klutch athlete on the NFL side. But Arenas now joins a deep college lineup here. And he's joining a fellow USC star by landing with Klutch.

USC women's basketball star JuJu Watkins is with Paul and James' agency. Watkins has since witnessed Klutch expand her brand. The Naismith College Player of the Year earned new endorsement deals with Nike, State Farm and has her own painted mural in Downtown Los Angeles. 

Watkins isn't the only high-profile college Klutch athlete. UConn star Ayanna Patterson and South Carolina standout Aliyah Boston are with the same venture. Even WNBA star A'ja Wilson of the Las Vegas Aces is with Klutch. 

Arenas won't be the first male USC athlete to sign with James, Paul and company either. Bronny James inked a deal with Klutch during his own Trojans career. 

The Chatsworth shooting guard Arenas recently survived a devastating car crash involving a Tesla cyber truck in late April. Arenas was left in an induced coma, but suffered no major injuries as his Tesla caught fire. 

Arenas is the nation's top shooting guard prospect by 247Sports for the 2025 class. He's also California's No. 2 ranked overall talent for '25, placing him behind combo guard Darryn Peterson of Prolific Prep in Napa. Peterson signed with Kansas during his recruiting period. Arenas will soon lead the future of USC men's basketball.
