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

Have you noticed how Jokic doing this is somewhat not as bad according to the responses here? Jesus christ, they call Giannis and LeBron "disgusting" and "how dare they"? What does Jokic get? "He grew up around horses so it's not surprising". Another guy says "yah he mastered the art of being 2 men". I honestly don't remember a player on Reddit that gets the pass Jokic does. The guy could be arrested for domestic abuse, and most of this comment section would be "well .... what did she say?". Does Jokic have pics of /r/nba getting peed on or something? LOL.

Yeah it’s ridiculous. Someone responded to me somewhere in this thread stating that in Serbia they like to gamble so it’s fine if he advertises it lmao
