Former NBA player Kyle Kuzma places a $36,000 bet on Spencer Pratt to win Los Angeles’ next mayoral election. The reports describe Kuzma making the wager publicly on social media, framing it as a political prediction amid dissatisfaction and debate over Los Angeles’ direction. Fox News and the New York Post both state the same wager amount and identify Pratt as the outsider candidate. They also note that the bet is part of a broader media attention cycle around Pratt’s candidacy, which includes his background as a reality television figure. The New York Post adds that the bet would pay out $133,588.89 if Pratt wins, indicating the bet is structured with a specific odds payout. Neither outlet reports that Kuzma holds an official role in the campaign or that the bet reflects an endorsement beyond the wager itself. The information is presented as Kuzma’s individual action and social media posting rather than as an official political contribution or endorsement.
