NBA Rumors: Drake Wins 7-Figure Payout For Bet On Warriors To Win The West

Back in 2019, when the Golden State Warriors lost to the Toronto Raptors in the NBA Finals, superfan and Raptors team ambassador Drake was a thorn in the Warriors' side. But he's showed some serious love for the Dubs this year, winning a $1,000,000 payout for his bet on them to win the Western Conference, according to @CPBetting.

On April 15th, Drake bet $200K on the Warriors to win the Western Conference (+400).

The report says that at the outset of the playoffs, Drake bet $200,000 on the Warriors to win the West, at +400. That bet has now paid out $1,000,000 as the Dubs dispatched the Dallas Mavericks in five games in the Western Conference Final.

The superstar rapper has been working with a betting site called "Stake", betting millions of dollars on sports. This bet paid off large.
