Ever wonder why so many NBA players go broke…well here is one reason. Washington Wizards rookie Chris Singleton says it was worth it to buy $10,000 worth of tickets for last week’s Mega Millions lottery, adding it was “either that or blowing it in the clubs.” Singleton raised eyebrows last week when he tweeted: “I’m about to drop $10,000 on the lottery and cross my fingers.” Singleton didn’t win a share of the record-breaking top prize, but he said Monday that he did win some money. He’s not sure how much because he hasn’t gone through all of his tickets yet. Hey Singleton….$20,000 would have got the job done…$10,000 ain’t **** playa! [csn]
