FC Barcelona’s Nikola Kusturica has reportedly committed to UCLA after receiving a $12 million NIL deal.

The 17-year-old was attracting interest from several college programs.

Kusturica is averaging 22.0 points and 6.8 rebounds in six games for Serbia at the FIBA U17 World Championship.

Kusturica made his Liga ACB debut for Barcelona in October 2025, becoming the youngest player to appear for the team in the competition.
