The sports world has been teased about the Michael Jordan documentary for months, and we finally get our first look this weekend.
‘The Last Dance’ will air on ESPN at 9 p.m. ET on Sunday, and some bookies are offering up ways to wager while you watch (you know, since there aren’t any actual sports to bet on at the moment.) Jordan should probably approve.
SportsBetting has created a dozen prop bets for first of two episodes set to air Sunday. All props except the last one are for Episode 1 (the first hour) only.
Here there are, along with some unrequested commentary some of you might enjoy (for those that don’t, sorry).
Will “The Last Dance” documentary win an Emmy Award in 2020?
Yes +300
No -500
(Ouch. No love from the early voters.)
Will Michael Jordan cry?
Yes -120
No -120
(There’s an MJ teary-eyed meme waiting to happen)
Will LeBron James be seen?
Yes -120
No -120
(Will the GOAT be interviewed in the other GOAT’S feature doc?)
Will Kobe Bryant be seen?
Yes -300
No +200
(Have to imagine the producers feature him early after January’s tragedy)
Will “gambling” be said?
Yes -200
