Ethan Strauss

Advisory Board

Ethan Sherwood Strauss has spent over a decade at the intersection of sports, media, and culture. As a beat writer for ESPN and later The Athletic, he chronicled the rise of the Golden State Warriors dynasty and helped define modern basketball storytelling. Today, through his independent Substack publication House of Strauss, he explores how power, fandom, and authenticity shape the business of sports.

Strauss brings to SportsPredict.com an invaluable editorial compass. He understands that sports prediction is not just about probabilities but about narratives of risk, drama, and credibility. He advises SP.com on content tone, media partnerships, and influencer engagement, ensuring that the platform feels human and trustworthy — not mechanical or hype-driven.

His experience building a loyal reader community from scratch mirrors what SP.com aims to do with players: replace noise with insight, spectacle with skill. By blending analytics with storytelling, Strauss helps SP.com become the home for smart sports conversation worldwide.
