The current outbreak of the coronavirus across the US and around the world has grounded most professional sports leagues and sporting events until further notice. The most notable cancelation was the annual NCAA Tournament for men’s basketball.
This situation has also had a major effect on the entire sports betting industry. In the absence of live sporting events, the online sportsbooks have ramped up their betting options for futures and specialty props for US pro leagues such as the NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB.
