The gambling capital of the world, Vegas is the quintessential place for debauchery and a place where men come of age, even if it’s through unscrupulous actions. Tyler Kolek has already turned 21, but the 24-year-old still used Las Vegas to come of age.

Kolek was set to earn roughly $2 million this year. The prize money for winning the Cup is $530,933 per player. As Hart scored the final basket of the game, he looked over at Kolek and flashed a money sign with his hands. It was fitting, because in Vegas, he became Kasino Kolek.

The New York Knicks prospect has earned more trust within the team's rotation thanks to a productive offseason.

By making it to the final, the Knicks and Spurs already have secured $212,373 per player from the NBA Cup prize money pool. The losing team on Tuesday gets nothing extra. Players on the winning team get an additional $308,560 – pushing their Cup winnings to $530,933 each. Two-way players get half of what players on standard contracts get.
