Hedge funding in NBA terms is basically making a bet on which team or which player will fail to meet their expectations. If you were to hedge fund on a player, who would it be?
I would mortgage my house to hedge fund on James Wiseman because I do not envision him as a good basketball player at all. The gains would be small because it’s obvious but it’s a quick and guaranteed positive investment.
Man doesn’t even know what hedge funds do. It’s literally in the name. You are hedging your bet.
You are describing betting against, which is “shorting”.
Regarded…
Whichever team broke out and beat expectation last year will probably be overrated this year. So the Kings probably.
Cam Reddish
The Thunder for sure.
Joel Embiid
Hedging is a risk management strategy employed to offset losses in investments by taking an opposite position in a related asset. The reduction in risk provided by hedging also typically results in a reduction in potential profits. Hedging requires one to pay money for the protection it provides, known as the premium.

And what he’s describing is just taking the under on teams
Wiseman is struggling to break into the rotation of a bad team. I don’t think you’re getting much value on that bet.
This is all wrong lol
I’m definitely hedging my bets on the Orlando Magic ever being a contender with their current core.
Lol hedge funding lololol
