DraftKings to Offer Single Game Daily Fantasy for Major League Baseball
DraftKings has announced it will continue offering single-game Daily Fantasy Sports extending into the upcoming Major League Baseball season.
The contest will kick off with the Dodgers-Giants opening day game.
Legal ramifications have mostly led to Daily Fantasy Sports reluctance to offer these types of contests as they more closely reflect gambling. DraftKings and FanDuel began featuring single-game DFS starting with the NFL this past season.
While a number of state laws stipulate that contests must not be based on the performance of a single team or athlete, there is no mention of the number of games that can be involved in a contest.
In reality, DraftKings has long been offering play on single events such as golf and NASCAR, though these can be broken down further into matchups.
