That percentage in my opinion is a low estimate, if you count the guys who don’t mind they are being blackmailed so they can keep their IG models around it is probably way over 50%.
Here is the thing about athletes, just because they have a gift of playing a sport, doesn’t mean they are smart.
I don’t mean book smart, I mean life smart. A lot of times athletes have been catered to their entire teenage and adult life, so when a street smart girl comes around the athlete becomes an easy mark. Complex Sports published a piece from Lisa Ann where she says she tried to mentor these athletes, but also breaks down how they are getting caught up.
Most stories of NBA players getting hustled do not shock me since I’ve probably heard the worst from girls talking on porn sets about the things they do to players. I’ve heard girls say they make sure he is married or in a relationship before going back to his hotel with him. Once there they wait for their moment alone with his wallet and take photos of all of his credit cards and his ID. The final part of the plan is blackmail. You would be shocked how many NBA players have had been blackmailed in an effort to keep their privacy. My guess is a minimum of 25 percent of NBA players have dealt with blackmail at some point in their career. I’ve heard girls brag about long-term hustles where they have a player paying their rent and expenses just to keep them quiet and out of their family life.
Let’s say a player is single; it still makes him an easy target. Sure, he may not be a long-term hustle and he may not be as easy to blackmail, but there are other ways. They will steal. Anything. A watch, a wallet, jewelry—I even heard a girl say she took a Playstation and a pair of J’s to give to her boyfriend once.
Strip clubs are another common danger for young players. My office for most of my life from ages 16-42, I know clubs tend to operate with the idea that most people don’t want to be caught there or going there. So they often scam credit cards and girls often steal wallets after a guy has had too much to drink. Their rationale is that no one will ever come back to complain out of the fear of getting caught or, even worse, getting beat up by someone at the club. I have witnessed clubs shake down wealthy patrons that were drunk as well as set up “outside jobs” where they have someone waiting for a patron to leave.
Lisa goes on to give some common sense rules that every athlete (and any man who has something to lose) should follow.
She is doing God’s work here.
