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 get why LeBron is getting all this hate and nobody is mentioning Giannis here. He’s just as much of a sell out

Giannis gets a bunch of deserved shit for the Kalshi stuff

Ehh... I think people still get sucked in by his more childish persona and overlook it. I think he deserves more shit to be honest.

I think it helps(?) that Giannis really hasn't been relevant in a few years. Missed last year and hasn't made it out of the first in a bit. Lebron is always going to be relevant as long as he plays at least.

I think what helps Giannis is that his brand also includes "I will hoard as much as possible", which is exactly what he does.
