Individuals are unable to place bets with Draftkings from the state of Oregon at this time. Alternatives include BetUS, a sportsbook that has been in operation since 1994 and offers a generous welcome bonus (max bonus $2500).
Could Draftkings Be Coming to Oregon Soon?
- The Oregon Lottery plans to move away from its current distastrous app, Scoreboard, and instead operate one powered by Draftkings.
- The Oregon Scoreboard app is run by SBTech, a company Draftkings purchased last year. The SBTech contract started prior to this acquisition however.
- Per LegalSportsReport: "The contract between SBTech and the Oregon Lottery has been the source of some consternation in the state, as SBTech fought to hide the details of its arrangement in Oregon."
- Online sports betting will remain a monopoly endeavor between the lottery and DraftKings in the state.
- Betting on college sports will be prohibited online using the Oregon sportsbook app regardless of which platform they utilize. Sites like BetUS, which are licensed in another jurisdiction but are still accessible to those living in Oregon, will continue to take bets on college games.
- SBTech reports winnings to the US Internal Revenue Service, BetUS does not.
Where Can I Bet Ducks Games From Oregon?
- Aside from a local bookmaker, online sportsbooks licensed in other jurisdictions and accessible within Oregon can take bets on Ducks games.
- Winners of nine of their last 10 games the Ducks were in a terrific position to secure a solid NCAA Tournament seed ahead of the 2021 NCAA Men's College Basketball Tournament, according to multiple NCAA Tournament projections.
- Combined, Oregon's four scholarship seniors - Chris Duarte, LJ Figueroa, Eugene Omoruyi and Amauri Hardy - are averaging more than 50 points per game (50.5).
