NBC Sports Philadelphia, NBC Sports Philadelphia Plus and PointsBet have expanded an ongoing partnership to launch BetCast, a series of sports betting presentations during the Philadelphia 76ers season.
BetCast will broadcast four games featured on NBC Sports Philadelphia Plus, starting December 2 with a matchup between the 76ers and the Grizzlies in Memphis, Tennessee.
BetCast will also cover the 76ers games against Detroit, Orlando and Indiana. Game coverage will span from December until March.
The agreement expansion is built on an existing partnership between PointsBet and the network that began with dual-market coverage last March of the 76ers vs. Chicago Bulls game.
Sports fans will have access to PointsBet’s on-screen live odds data through BetCast coverage, as well as to future odds and player props. BetCast will feature alternate announcers who will contribute both game analysis and sports betting commentary during the live events.
Bettors can track odds, place wagers and manage their bets on BetCast through the PointsBet app.
NBC Sports Philadelphia is affiliated with NBC Sports Regional Networks, and offers sports fans live-game extensive coverage of the Philadelphia Eagles. The network also airs the NHL’s Philadelphia Flyers, NBA’s Philadelphia 76ers and MLB’s Philadelphia Phillies games.
Its broadcast scope covers the greater Philadelphia area, as well as in Delaware and Southern New Jersey.
PointsBet is an operator listed on the Australian Stock Exchange with operations in Australia, the United States, Canada and Ireland. The company recently extended its partnership with Team Einarson. PointsBet will represent the team as its official sports betting partner this year.
