NBA's Collaboration with Betting Companies: What do Basketball Players Think?

"The Athletic" conducted an anonymous survey among NBA basketball players regarding their attitude towards the league's collaboration with betting companies and casinos.

İdman.biz reports that the National Basketball Association has been collaborating with major betting companies "FanDuel" and "DraftKings" since 2021, and some teams have also signed agreements with casino operators.

150 NBA basketball players participated in an anonymous survey on the topic of "Is the NBA's collaboration with gambling good or bad for the league?"

46% of the survey participants have a negative attitude towards such partnerships. Players note that the constant advertising of betting companies leads to an increase in the number of people addicted to gambling. In addition, basketball players often receive threats from bettors due to losses.

34% of the players have a positive attitude towards the NBA's collaboration with betting companies and casinos, as it brings a lot of money to the league.

12% of respondents are neutral about this type of partnership, while 8% could not decide on their position.
