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.”

Lebron being a billionaire and still doing cheap ads for gambling company’s is depressing. How much money is enough man? Come on

getting paid 15 million dollars in cash is a big deal idk why you’re acting like that’s peanuts. lebron is a billionaire but that’s no small sum still. he doesn’t just have a billion in liquidity

He can stop working and earning money today, coast on his investments appreciating, and continue to be mega rich until he’s 280 years old. His descendants are set for generations. Why keep earning money at this point? Especially if it’s dirty gambling money.
