Raptors fans were defrauded and deserve compensation from the league in the form of draft compensation. 1st overall this year or next. Nothing else will suffice.

some people enjoy the thrill of earning money by cheating the system, finding loopholes and exploits and overall working “smarter” than harder.

He’s set for life if he pays for a house in full.

He could’ve just focused on his crypto stuff on discord and he wouldn’t have been banned lol

He should’ve beat his partner or threatened a child with a gun, would’ve gotten a slap on the wrist

Addiction is a scary thing especially when money and substance gets involved

What are the odds he’ll earn more than 2.8 M running his own gambling business?

One of the biggest bag fumbles of all time. At least Schroder had a career after his.

Everybody’s pointing out the piddly $22k he made off his own gambling, but ignoring the $1M his “friend” (would’ve) made off the bet that he pulled himself out of the game for.
Not that it changes anything – it was all kinds of stupid to think no one would notice this much bizarre action on such an obscure bet, but if they actually legit thought no one would notice, then you can see where they were trying to go with this. If they got away and repeated that bet a few times, it would have quickly surpassed the 2.8mil, even splitting it or whatever.
Again though, obviously moronic considering he had an outlet to make tons of money in an honest way that most of us can only dream of. But he’s a dumb criminal because he didn’t understand the risk part, not so much the reward part like this graphic is implying.

Hey maybe he has a problem.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, Jontay?!?

Complete stupidity, it doesn’t get worse than this. This guy just needed to be a bench warmer and he would’ve made millions

This is fine, but it should be accompanied by a graphic depicting the difference between the stacks of cash.

It’s not stupidity.
It’s self-destructive behavior.

he may have received a ton of cash in a suitcase and now in a bank in a fiscal heaven somewhere…
