Best protein powders for muscle gain?

First time posting in this thread. I’ve been reading through everything, but I could use some advice—specifically from people who actually know what they're doing...
So, I train French boxing. Up until this season, I was competing in assault (no contact, just technique), but next season I'm moving up to combat (full contact)... Since I'm naturally pretty lean—about 143 lbs at 5'11"—I was thinking about bulking up a bit to gain some strength. My coach suggested the same thing... My questions are: first, is it even smart to mess with supplements at my age, being 16? Second, if it is, any recommendations? I'd start with something for weight gain, maybe muscle mass later on—nothing crazy, just enough to look decent. I have a relative who uses them and looks great; we were talking about it, and he takes a lot of vitamins along with his regimen too... So, if anyone could share a "recipe" or a stack, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.
Anyone able to weigh in?
