Would you wager $5,000 on a 1/6 chance to win $75,000?

If I had the money to do this repeatedly, most definitely yes.  As is, the principal is too high for me to take that chance.

Id do it as long as I still get Jabari Parker if I lose.

SHHHHHHH!  I'm being discrete!

If this is either going to make me settled for the next few years or completely broke, no.

I'd rather use that 5k, buy t-shirts and some textile paint and sell them.

I think it's a question intended to measure risk aversion, rather than an example of odds one might face from a bookie.

If a man came up to me in a dark alley with a single die and asked me that question, I'd pass...unless he let me do it as many times as I wanted...with my own die...in a well-lit area...of my choosing.

Haha Yup.

I like to go to casinos from time to time and there's no way you would come across those odds. Those are amazing odds for whoever is gambling.
