Former Los Angeles’ Sparks star Candace Parker recently weighed in on the NBA’s gambling scandal — in which authorities arrested Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier on Oct. 23, in connection to illegal poker and betting schemes.

“I do think this is a growing problem in all of the leagues, when betting is literally at your fingertips,” Parker said on a recent episode of her podcast,“Post Moves with Candace Parker & Aliyah Boston,” the L.A. legend . “You can wake up and decide to place whatever bet on whatever.”

Furthermore, following the MLB’s L.A. Dodgers’ 5-4, 11-inning win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Nov. 1 — which cemented back-to-back World Series titles — Sparks and Dodgers owner, and Lakers’ legend, Magic Johnson shared thoughts.

“18 Championship rings for me! NCAA Championship with MSU, 11 Lakers (5 playing, 5 as an owner and 1 as an executive), 1 LA Sparks, 1 LAFC, 1 Team Liquid, and now 3 with the Dodgers!” he wrote.
