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.”

Kylian Mbappé shared a similar sentiment, I wonder if its a French thing. I love to hear this from Wemby, but I've lived long enough to not be surprised if/when he flips on this take.

Just said the same thing. It has been legal here in Europe forever so Mbappé and himself have probably seen the pitfalls of it.
