I don't get how Michael Jordan ended up in the middle spot when his losses was unknown.

I remember there was another former nba player that lost a lot from gambling but I couldn't find the thread.

Yeah, I think even if his losses are unknown, I think he should be higher. Michael Jordan's salary alone in NBA is at $30M, that could go in a lot of ways in betting. Another thing is Michael Jordan's shoes are so popular even though he is retired, it is said that he earned $100M from Nike last year. And still, there are a lot of deals where he can still get a lot of money from so a lot of money for him to bet. That $2.5M loss was just last year, we don't know but he might still continuing to bet until now.

They won't disclose the real amount as he has image to protect with.
But, I am sure he lost a lot in gambling. It is his money so he can do what he wants.
There will be more that will make in the list but a lot of them have private lives.
Like Royals. As much as possible they are discrete with their gambling habits.
