Sportsbooks make Lakers and Clippers co-favorites to win the West by Jeff Fogle of Los Angeles Times

“At Circa Sports, USC is 300-1 to win the national title, and UCLA is 750-1. Circa is the only outlet that offers odds to win the NIT. UCLA has surged to 16-1 in that event based on recent form. USC is only 100-1 to win the NIT because it’s still expected to make the NCAA.

 

Deontay Wilder is a slight favorite over Tyson Fury in heavyweight rematch by Dave Tuley of Los Angeles Times

We have had some interest from recreational players on a few games.’
