PointsBet has extended its partnership with NBC Sports Chicago to launch a three-game sports betting series covering the Chicago Bulls, titled BetCast.
Starting off covering the Bulls vs Washington Wizards game this Tuesday the 29th in a dual market presentation, BetCast will offer live odds on the PointsBet screen, along with future odds and player props.
Real-time data will appear in a graphical overlay on the game’s coverage, which will also include alternate voices that will provide sports betting commentary and analysis.
The second dual market presentation, called ‘The Bulls at Wizards BetCast’, will feature NBC Sports Chicago host David Kaplan and Bulls analyst Kendall Gill, as well as NBC Sports Washington Wizards analyst Tony Massenburg and Jay Croucher, Head Oddsmaker at PointsBet, offering viewers insights, exclusive analysis and the latest odds.
For the remainder of BetCast’s performances, Kaplan and Croucher will return, with alternate appearances from Gill and Will Perdue. Marking the launch of BetCast, the NBC Sports Predictor app powered by PointsBet will feature special ‘Pick n’ Roll’ contests with jackpots of $50,000.
While a special edition of the ‘Bet the EDGE GameTime’ podcast featuring Sara Perlman and Drew Dinsick will provide an hour of pre-game coverage before the official schedule begins.
In early March, NBC Sports Chicago and NBC Sports Philadelphia partnered with PointsBet on the first ever dual-market sports betting show, when it aired similar shows for the game between the Bulls and Philadelphia 76ers.
