Toronto’s run to the 2019 NBA title earned Drake a major payday, according to rapper and Milwaukee Bucks fan Gucci Mane. In a conversation with Jalen Rose, Gucci Mane revealed that he and Drake has a “six-figure” bet on the outcome of the Bucks-Raptors Eastern Conference Finals, which the Raptors won in six games after falling into an 0-2 hole.
Gucci Mane wouldn’t reveal the exact terms of the bet, but he implied the amount was well above $100,000.
Gucci Mane: “Yeah I lost a bunch of money. I lost over six figures – and I lost my damn shirt. Because we bet the jersey, too… I literally lost my shirt.”
Jalen Rose: “Now you guys are getting real, real money. So when you say six figures, I take that as a lot higher than just $100,000…. $500,000?”
Gucci Mane: “Hey listen, it was over six figures. And I didn’t win, unfortunately. We’ll get him back this season.”
Following Kawhi Leonard’s exit, Drake probably won’t be betting six figures on the Raptors to beat the Bucks, but perhaps Gucci Mane can convince Drake to back one of his other favorite teams. Drake has a long list of favorites, after all.
