Last Updated: April 2, 2026
Overview
The Most Hated NBA Players ("we," "us," or "our") participates in affiliate marketing programs, which means we may earn commissions on purchases made through links on our website. This page explains how affiliate links work on our site and how they may affect you.
What Are Affiliate Links?
Affiliate links are special URLs that track referrals from our website to a merchant's website. When you click an affiliate link on our site and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission from the merchant. This commission comes at no extra cost to you -- the price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or go directly to the merchant's website.
Affiliate Programs We Participate In
Amazon Associates Program
The Most Hated NBA Players is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
We may also participate in other affiliate programs in the future. This page will be updated to reflect any new partnerships.
Where Affiliate Links Appear
Affiliate links may appear in various places on our site, including but not limited to:
- Product recommendations on villain profile pages
- Featured gear sections on the homepage
- Blog posts and articles that reference products
- Merchandise and gear recommendation pages
We strive to clearly identify affiliate links where they appear. However, you should assume that any link to a product or service on our site may be an affiliate link.
Our Commitment to Honesty
We want to be completely transparent about how affiliate links work on our site. Here is what you should know:
- Affiliate relationships do not influence our content. Our player rankings, villain scores, and editorial content are determined by community votes and our editorial team -- never by affiliate partnerships.
- We only recommend products we believe in. We feature products that are relevant to basketball fans and our community. We do not promote products solely because they offer a commission.
- You are never obligated to use our links. If you prefer, you can navigate directly to any merchant's website. We appreciate when you use our links as it helps support the site, but it is entirely your choice.
- Commissions help keep this site running. Revenue from affiliate links helps us maintain the site, create content, and keep many features free for our community.
FTC Compliance
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines, we disclose that we have financial relationships with some of the merchants whose products we feature on this site. The FTC requires that we disclose these relationships so you can make informed purchasing decisions.
This disclosure is provided in compliance with the FTC's 16 CFR Part 255, "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising."
Product Pricing and Availability

Any price and availability information displayed on merchant sites (such as Amazon.com) at the time of purchase will apply to your transaction. We are not responsible for price changes or product availability after a link is posted.
