Houston Sports Fans Can Score $200 Bonus and Free NBA League Pass with New DraftKings Offer
Date Published
Houston sports fans have a new incentive to tune in this week. DraftKings launched a promotional offer that gives new users $200 in bonus bets and a complimentary NBA League Pass subscription after a qualifying wager. The timing matters for fans across Houston, especially with high-interest NBA and NCAA matchups on tap.
How the DraftKings Promotion Works
The offer centers on a simple requirement: place an initial $5 wager, and DraftKings releases $200 in bonus bets. Users also gain access to a full-season NBA League Pass, giving them live and on-demand games throughout the year.
Houston bettors can redeem the deal immediately and use the bonus for marquee events like Houston-Tennessee, the Lakers-Clippers rivalry game, and early-season NBA action that draws heavy local interest.
Because sports wagering continues to grow nationwide, the platform expects strong participation around these televised matchups. Although Texas has not legalized online sports betting, many Houston-area fans travel across state lines or use the offer when visiting legalized markets.
Why It Matters for the University of Houston Community
The University of Houston fan base remains highly engaged during the football and basketball seasons. This promotion adds an extra layer of energy as students, alumni, and fans follow nationally relevant games.
While UH games are not directly tied to the DraftKings incentives, the bonus bets and NBA League Pass give fans a broader slate of sports entertainment. Many UH supporters already follow NBA teams closely, particularly former Cougar standouts who now play professionally.
What Houston Fans Get with NBA League Pass
The included NBA League Pass subscription is a driving force behind the promotion. It allows users to watch out-of-market games, track favorite players, and follow storylines across the league.
- Live and on-demand access to full NBA games
- Enhanced viewing features like multi-game streaming
- Coverage that supports Houston-based NBA fans and UH basketball followers
This aligns well with the city’s strong basketball culture and the growing national profile of Houston athletes.
What’s Next
The promotion is expected to run during a high-interest stretch of the sports calendar. Fans planning weekend trips to betting-friendly states may find the timing ideal. As the University of Houston basketball season ramps up, more Cougars supporters will track both college and NBA action closely.
Houston.com will continue to follow sports-related developments that affect local fans, including incentives, major broadcasts, and UH athletics news.
