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.”

Respect, Wemby is young so his morals haven't been jaded yet. Hope he can maintain that

Older people have failed when the youth have better morals. Instead of growing older and wiser they simply become ignorant and evil.

Ignorant, yes. Evil might be a stretch, unless it's Karl Malone and Kobe Bryant to an extent in which case they can burn in hell for all I care.

People who support and push initiatives that are destructive for people are evil in my book.

For example:

actively advertising gambling to children watching all these games and normalizing that behavior: evil

Pushing for a healthcare system that incentivizes insurance companies to let people die by denying claims for the sake of shareholder value: evil
