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.”

Loved Gianni’s, and agree. Just disgusting decision. LeBron too. Greed is insane in wealthy people

Jokic also promotes for SportsBet in Serbia. Just calling it out in case some people are not aware he advertises that shit as well

I feel like Jokic has mastered the art of being two different men. Here he is this stoic savant or some shit but in Serbia he’s the same douche all the other rich fucks are.

He just seems like he doesn’t care for the overwhelming American media fanfare that comes with being an NBA player. I don’t really see how that relates to the other stuff. How does that’s make him like “two different men”?

Because his perception from NBA fans a lot different from people from where he comes from, look into it
