Five-Star Plus+ shooting guard Darryn Peterson signs NIL deal with adidas

Darryn Peterson is making history.

The Five-Star Plus+ shooting guard has become the first high school athlete to ink an NIL deal with adidas. The sportswear giant has continued to build out its NIL program, recently signing the Washington quarterback-wide receiver duo of Michael Penix and Rome Odunze as its first football athletes.

Now the three-strip logo is adding the nation’s third-ranked prospect in the class of 20205, who is a junior at Huntington Prep in Huntington, West Virginia.
