Could a college basketball player sign a NIL deal with an NBA team, and as part of that contract they have to play games after their college season?

Or what if Brody Brecht signed an NIL deal with the cubs, and went to pitch in the minors in the offseason?
 
Thats paying for their athletic prowess, not their name/image/likeness.
 
No, an advertising contract could not have language that was tied to an NBA player's contract. The players union would not allow it as it would be a way of circumventing the CBA.
