There’s no doubt that the NFL drives the American sports betting bus. That’s where the bulk of action is, including plenty of major wagers and wild winners. But there are still plenty of bets flowing elsewhere, now that the NFL season is over, perhaps on college basketball, the NBA, tennis and golf.

The team, following decades of tradition, partied with the Cup into the wee hours and kept the revelry going in Fort Lauderdale well into Wednesday afternoon. A

Everyone who plays sports dreams of stepping up on their sport's biggest stage as a kid, hoping to make history en route to a championship. Sam Reinhart got to fulfill that dream on Tuesday night.

Reinhart's four goals matched the most ever scored in a Final game, with five other players scoring

One bettor would've cashed in on a whopping $270,000 if the Oilers had won the 2025 Stanley Cup.

Sometimes, greatness runs in the family. Several players in sports history have followed in their fathers' footsteps to become stars of their own. In fact, some of the greatest players in major North American sports are sons of former professional athletes. Not many father-son duos get the opportunity to play together, though — like what LeBron and Bronny James did with the Los Angeles Lakers at the start of the 2024-25 season.
