BOOM SHAKALAKA!

For perhaps the first time in history, bettors will be able to cash on a slam dunk in an NBA game.  This is quite the monumental event and you surely won't want to miss out on it — especially considering the triple-digit payday.

To score this $125, all you have to do is:

• Click this link
• Deposit at least $20
• Bet at least $20 on the Rockets' spread or moneyline as your first bet

If your initial bet on the Rockets wins, you'd win that money, too! The only way you walk away empty handed is if they somehow go dunk-less and lose/fail to cover.

Note: We've used the Rockets as an example here, but you can take advantage of this promo by choosing any NBA team this week!

Whether it's a weak dunk that barely rattles in or emphatic posterizer, you'll be pretty pumped with this slam dunk of a promo.

Bet $20, Win $125 if the Rockets Have at Least 1 Dunk on Saturday
