New Yorker places huge Knicks bet on NBA Finals vs Spurs... because glory for Jalen #sports #news

He has placed a $6,000 hedge with Kalshi on the Knicks emerging victorious against the San Antonio Spurs and indeed, he hopes they do.

But the smart thinking is that if the Knicks clinch their first title since 1973, the millions of fans in the city will be euphoric - perhaps too euphoric, and won't want to visit the cage to destroy things.

If they get it done, his payout will cover what he fears would be a loss for his business as the city celebrates.
