The channels owned have broadcast rights to over half of the MLB, NBA and NHL teams.The regional sports networks will be renamed under the Bally's brand. Sinclair will get fees and a percentage of Bally's marketing spend for the regional sports network naming rights.The release said the deal is setting the stage for "further gamification of live sports that will provide audiences a first-of-its-kind interactive viewing experience."Sports Betting Market: Bally's has a land base footprint that covers 10 states with more expected to come. The company believes it can capture a significant share of the $50 billion sports betting and iGaming market.Bally's also acquired the BetWorks iGaming platform. Bally's has rights in several states for online betting.Benzinga's Take: Both Sinclair and Bally's have a market capitalization of under $2 billion. The stocks have risen in the last month but Sinclair remains down 26% year-to-date.The regional sports networks could be the key to this partnership as they see strong viewer demographics given the loyalty of fans. The networks were dropped from several viewing platforms like Hulu, YouTube TV and Dish Network. Sinclair could be able to re-negotiate with the return of sports and the demand for sports betting content.Sinclair announced a write-down of $4.2 billion earlier this month on its $9.6 billion acquisition of the regional sports networks.This could be a great partnership that sees both companies emerge as winners in the growing sports betting market.Photo by JESHOOTS from PexelsSee more from Benzinga * Click here for options trades from Benzinga * Citron Calls Electrameccanica A 'Complete Joke' * Bill Gates, Baillie Gifford-Backed Ultrasound Company Butterfly Network Gets SPAC Deal(C) 2020 Benzinga.com.
