Today is August 24, aka 8/24, aka Kobe Day.
DraftKings Sportsbook at Casino Queen is honoring the former Laker a day after what would’ve been his 42nd birthday by giving you a no-brainer promo: Bet the Lakers +81 at -110 odds. (The significance of 81? The most points Kobe ever scored in a game was 81.)
When/if L.A. covers, you’ll profit $45.50 in CASH off a $50 max bet.
To claim this offer simply…
- Click here
- Register and deposit into your account (the max bet is $50, so take that into account when depositing)
- Opt-in to the promotion on the DK homepage
- Place your boosted bet
Note: Even if you’re already a DK customer, you can get in on the action and score what’s essentially a free $45.50.
This won’t come as a shock to you, but the Lakers have never lost by 81 or more points, and they’re very, very, very unlikely to do so tonight against the Blazers in Game 4.
L.A. is currently 7-point favorites tonight, so you’re getting a cool 88 points in value here.
You have until 8 p.m. CDT to claim before the promo expires. Good luck (you probably won’t need it)!

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 Pacers’ spread or moneyline as your first bet
If your initial bet on the Pacers 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 Pacers 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 Pacers Have at Least 1 Dunk on Monday
