More than his interest in sports, his competitive nature also pushes him a step ahead to place bets on these games. These bets are mostly against other Esports giants such as OpTic Hecz or TimTheTatman. However, his recent set of tweets have hinted towards a potential deal with the sports betting website FanDuel.

Doc shared a short clip of a basketball stadium with his logo, as well as the mentions of FanDuel at various places. He captioned the tweet “coming soon,” thus, highlighting the possibility of a deal between the two. This comes after he advertised a hefty sum of a bet he placed on the website a few days ago.
