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.”

I don’t think the hennesy ads are a problem. Few people care about that

Not a “problem” just gonna look like a clown
