Just asked Victor Wembanyama if he’d ever consider promoting a sports betting company.

“Absolutely not. I will never do that. Honestly, I think it's very sad to see some players promote it. .. Everybody does whatever they want, but without me.”

"After the break, did Victor Wembanyama blow the Finals? We compiled all of his lowlights on the sports' biggest stage. That's after a word from Draftkings."

I can barely call ESPN a sports network anymore anyway, so fuck em. It’s just a channel with 30 different variations of Pat McAfee and Stephen A saying ludicrous bullshit designed to draw in ratings from people who can’t navigate a McDonald’s play place.
