At least one group with some big names behind it – including Nike – [is] looking to push past the DraftKings monopoly on Oregon sports betting.

During the Oregon Joint Interim Committee on Gambling Regulation meeting Friday, representatives from Sport Oregon advocated for the expansion of Oregon sports betting. DraftKings runs the Oregon Lottery’s sports betting efforts after taking over for the SBTech-powered Scoreboard in January.

“[The monopoly model] is outdated and shortchanges the state in millions of dollars of revenue each and every year,” said Nathan Nayman, Sport Oregon external affairs and special projects specialist.

Sport Oregon is an economic development organization made up of members like Nike, Adidas and the Portland Trail Blazers.
