We don’t benefit from any of the profits or anything like that
The gambling revenue has absolutely increased league revenues aside from players like Lebron outright being sponsored by Draftkings. League revenue determines the salary cap, the guy making Supermax/35% of the cap said that.
I really don’t get this logic of the guy being some clueless victim at the same time a fountain wisdom comes from aside from Trump level idolization.

Only 46% said the players polled said it was bad and 34% of them said it was good.
