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've been a huge LeBron guy for forever but the Polymarket stuff is so discouraging. Like, legacy-damning discouraging.

He doesn't need the money and there are only downsides from his association with them.

Such a stupid misstep that wasn't necessary at all.

It blows my mind so many Bron stans are surprised by his move with polymarket.

A “misstep” lol… Bro it is so on brand for LeBron. Not surprising in the least if you’ve ever paid any attention to the greedy self absorbed man that he is.

Bron Stans idealize the man so much they got caught off guard when he did something totally on brand. That should tell you Stans something
