Cleveland Cavaliers Team up with Fan Duel

In a first-of-a-kind deal, the Cleveland Cavaliers have joined forces with the leading fantasy sports site FanDuel that will give them huge amounts of exposure at the home of the Cavs, the Quicken Loans Arena. Kerry Bubolz, the President of business operations at the Cleveland Cavaliers stated that, "The Cavs are pleased to welcome FanDuel as an exciting new official partner, we look forward to a long-standing relationship with FanDuel as they continue to leverage themselves in the sports and entertainment industry as the leader in one-day fantasy sports leagues."

A small part of the new deal will see sweepstakes competitions in which fans can win Cavaliers VIP experiences as well as getting free tickets to games and Cavs merchandise in what's being seen as a groundbreaking deal. FanDuel CEO Nigel Eccles is clearly happy with the arrangement and says, "The Cleveland Cavaliers are one of the most dynamic teams in the NBA, with passionate fans and an exciting roster, the Cavs fully align with FanDuel's mission to make sports more exciting for basketball fans."

If you've yet to check out FanDuel and see what all the fuss is about then head on over and you'll find masses of daily fantasy sports competitions to participate in, many of which are just $1.00 to get involved in. There's a huge amount of action to be had and it's all surprisingly simple to be a part of and with over $10 Million being paid to prize winners each week it's not something to be sniffed at.

Fantasy sports has come on leaps and bounds and we're expecting it to grow massively during 2026, and while it's not quite the same as getting your money on the game, the real money action is still there, with the new daily competition formats and fast payouts meaning that you don't have to wait all season long for your cash.
