If there was any doubt about the growth of sports betting and the magnitude of possibilities, then the news ofMichael Jordanas an investor and adviser to DraftKings ended all dispelling notions. In a report provided by CNN Business, Jordan will also inform DraftKings' board on strategy, product development and inclusion initiatives. The news of this agreement affected the price of DraftKings stock. The value increased by 8% in early trading.
The fact that Jordan was known as an avid gambler will help bring a level of intuitive thinking that most executives do not possess. Jordan’s association with the NBA will open discussions with other former and current athletes in promoting the DraftKings brand. I would expect the strategy employed would take on a global presence that can extend into other countries. While the current app is a good product, I can see it being upgraded with new features and offerings including eSports.
Jordan is not the only iconic athlete to have ties with a sports betting operator.Allen Iversonhas done promotional work for PointsBet.Charles Barkley,Shaquille O’Neal,Kenny Smith,andErnie Johnson, the panelists for theInside the NBA on TNT, have FanDuel odds posted before the start of every game.
Ted LeonsisandZach Leonsis, the leaders ofMonumental Sports and Entertainment, have partnered with William Hill to open a sports betting operation that is part of the Capital One Arena. This is the venue that the Wizards, Capitals, and Mystics play their home games. They have also developed broadcasts that are gaming centric and provide information to the audience on the possible bets you can make thru out the course of the game.
