Drake and his beef with Kendrick Lamar may have kept him out of the headlines for the past month or two, but the Canadian musician is constantly mentioned when it comes to sports betting during major occasions.
It appears customary that following a major athletic event, rumors circulate that Drake has placed hundreds of thousands of dollars on one particular team or individual. This year’s NBA Finals will carry on that tradition, and Dallas Mavericks supporters are crossing their fingers that the “Drake Curse” is nothing more than a myth.
Drake has a large bet on the Dallas Mavericks to win the NBA Finals
Against the Boston Celtics, Drake has selected the Mavs to win the series. He is risking $500,000, which, should he win, will pay out $1,375,000.

Drake has a strong affinity for sports betting because he is associated with Stake, which is referred to as the “world’s leading betting platform”. Although Drake spends most of his time in Canada, it isn’t really available in the US.
His last huge wager didn’t end up winning. He wagered $565,000 on Oleksandr Usyk losing to Tyson Fury. In the end, Usyk prevailed via split decision. Fans of Drake and the Mavs are hoping for a different outcome this time.
