A favorite has emerged from a list of NBA players—past and present—to be the next to fight Jake Paul.
The Problem Child is coming off a monumental win over Mike Tyson, though his victory is thought to have an asterisk given Tyson’s age, and everyone is curious over who he will fight next.
A few challenges have been thrown down following Friday’s fight, with former NFL running back Le’Veon Bell calling Paul out over the weekend. But a bookmaking platform is offering odds on the next NBA player to face off against the YouTube star-turned-boxer following his easy win over Nate Robinson four years ago.
Ron Artest heads that list at +500, and we have to assume many fans would be up for such a match given Artest’s volatile nature as a player and his part in the infamous “Malice at the Palace” incident.
Artest is ahead of Dwight Howard, Ben Wallace, Matt Barnes, and Iman Shumpert, who round out the top five.
You can see the full list below:

Fans Share Their Feelings On Draymond Green Being Excluded From the NBA’s Roster Of Potential Jake Paul Opponents
If nothing else, the list above is intriguing. But the NBA’s current bad boy, Draymond Green, was left off, raising some eyebrows.
“It’s gonna be Dwight if anybody,” someone claimed.
“DWade???” asked another in surprise.
“Draymond Green doesn’t even have odds because it’s guaranteed,” said a third.
“Rondo? John Wall? LeBron? Rose? Embiid? Varejao?! These names be so random. Betting on these is like throwing money to straight dumpster fire 😭,” a fourth advised.
“Ron Artest would put the works on Jake Paul,” a fan predicted.
“No Deron Williams 🙄 he’s the only one on this list that has won a fight,” a user pointed out.

A photo of a female hockey fan who was busting out of her jeans at a Leafs-Devils game in early 2024 has gone viral online again.
Said supporter was pictured in the stands wearing a Devils Jack Hughes jersey, but that was probably the least interesting thing about her as a lower body part caused her to trend on X.
A new set of photos of her showing her assets off has popped up online ahead of the weekend, with one of the accounts posting asking, “Are you a hockey fan?”
