Kyrie Irving Seemingly Calls Out ‘Sell Out’ LeBron James on Social Media
Kyrie Irving apparently still has issues with 76ers star LeBron James' off-the-court business deals and the brands he associates with. The post Kyrie Irving Seemingly Calls Out ‘Sell Out’ LeBron James on Social Media appeared first on HEAVY.
Kyrie Irving of the Dallas Mavericks appeared to criticize LeBron James for "selling out" and associating with Polymarket, a gambling company. Irving reposted a tweet from hockey writer Nick Zararis, stating, "I miss when there was a stigma to selling out." Irving also questioned whether James was genuinely praising Stephen Curry during an episode of "Mind the Game."
When James endorsed Polymarket, he faced backlash due to his past comments about the negative impact of gambling on the NBA. James had previously remarked that the NBA had lost some "integrity" by partnering with gambling companies and encouraging fans to bet on games.
