PrizePicks Founder Adam Wexler Pledges $10 Million to UGA Basketball

The donation supports the men's basketball program and the Athletic Director Excellence Fund.

Adam Wexler, a University of Georgia alumnus and the founder of the sports‑betting platform PrizePicks, announced a $10 million philanthropic contribution that stands as the largest single donation in the history of the UGA Athletic Association.

The funds will be directed toward personnel costs and operating expenses, providing the basketball program with the financial flexibility needed to pursue its long‑term competitive goals.

Wexler's personal connection to the university runs deep; his father was a two‑sport student‑athlete at UGA, a fact that has shaped his enduring affection for the school and its athletic community.

Looking Ahead

University officials say the gift will be accompanied by announcements of additional initiatives tied to the basketball program, signaling a broader strategy to enhance the overall athletic experience at Georgia.
