DraftKings seals NBA partnership
| By Daniel O'Boyle
Sportsbook and daily fantasy sports operator DraftKings has agreed to a partnership with the National Basketball Association (NBA) that will make the company an “authorized sports betting operator” of the league.
DraftKings will be the NBA’s second authorized sports betting operator, following William Hill, which agreed a similar deal with the league in October.
