North Carolina’s sports betting rules require online operators to partner with a North Carolina sports franchise, stadium, track, course, etc. “We are confident that bet365 is a great fit with our organization and can help us do that.” Hornets spokesperson Jacob Gallagher said if the deal.
“Since the day Governor Cooper signed sports wagering into law at Spectrum Center in June, we sought a partner that would help us provide our fans with new, additional opportunities to engage with their favorite sports teams. That makes bet365 the first and only online operator to be awarded access to the Tar Heel State. The deal allows for branding around the Hornets’ arena and gives bet365 a license to offer their online casino if sports betting goes live in January 2024.
The Charlotte Hornets made big news last week when they announced that bet365 would be their new official sports betting partner.
