Former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant, known for his passion for sports betting since retiring from the game, celebrated a monumental victory on Saturday.
Sharing his triumph on social media, Bryant revealed that he cashed in an impressive $416,970.35 on a colossal 13-leg college basketball parlay. Placing a $767 wager at +54215 odds, Bryant’s calculated risk paid off handsomely.
The culmination of his parlay came with Nevada’s 69-66 triumph over UNLV, securing Bryant’s sizable win. He even shared a video of himself collecting his winnings at the casino window, capturing the moment of victory.
Despite narrowly missing out on an even larger payout, as a separate $900 parlay fell short when Washington lost to California, Bryant’s haul of nearly half a million dollars marks a remarkable achievement in sports betting.
Bryant’s active involvement in sports betting has been evident in recent years. From placing live bets on NFL games to backing his former team, the Dallas Cowboys, with significant wagers during the regular season, Bryant has demonstrated a knack for success in the betting arena.
While the frequency of Bryant’s betting endeavors remains undisclosed, his ability to secure substantial wins underscores his proficiency in navigating the world of sports gambling.
