Drake apparently bets $500K on Mavs to win NBA Finals
DALLAS - Drake may be a big Toronto Raptors fan, but he'll be pulling hard for the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals if a recent Instagram post is to be believed.
The Canadian rapper posted a photo of a bet slip where he allegedly put $500,000 on the Mavericks to beat the Boston Celtics.
If the Mavs were to win, Drake would win $1,375,000.
The slip also showed him betting another half a million on the Edmonton Oilers to win the Stanley Cup.
"Dallas cause I’m a Texan, Oilers are self explanatory," Drake wrote in the caption for the post.
The Texas reference is because the rapper recently purchased a $15 million ranch in Brenham.
Dallas is the underdog in the series.
