Shaq is a man that is so large, that everything he does never goes under the radar. Shaq’s latest endorsement deal is forcing the big fella’s hand. Shaq is now being forced to sell his stake in the Kings, due to his latest endorsement deal with WynnBet. The league has very staunch rules against owners and players having a stake in gambling websites, which means Shaq can no longer be a part-owner of the franchise.
According to the report, Shaq is currently going thru the process of selling his stake in the NBA franchise.
NEWS: Shaq has been named a brand ambassador for @WynnBET and will be the face of advertising campaigns across TV, digital, and print.
To comply with NBA rules, Shaq will have to sell his minority stake in the Sacramento Kings.
