The Bulls-76ers BetCast marks NBC Sports Regional Networks’ first dual-market sports betting telecast and will air on NBC Sports Chicago Plus and NBC Sports Philadelphia Plus.

The BetCast will deliver on-screen live odds data powered by PointsBet – including Spread, Over/Under and moving Money Lines – along with futures odds and player props.
