The NBA team Dallas Mavericks are worried. The reason: Rapper Drake has bet a fortune (half a million US dollars) on an NBA triumph for the Mavs.

The past has shown that no matter which athlete or team Drake is rooting for, things just don't go smoothly afterwards. There has even been talk of the "Drake curse". And indeed: Dallas clearly lost the first game in the finals against the Boston Celtics.
