Story Highlights

On Monday, Feb. 7, MSG Networks launched Bet-A-Palooza, presented by DraftKings - a week-long lineup of sports betting programming leading into the Super Bowl. As part of the Bet-A-Palooza' lineup, MSG Networks will debut a sports betting-focused simulcast of two upcoming Knicks games this week: Knicks/Warriors on Feb. 10 and Knicks/Portland on Feb. 12. The alternative broadcasts will air on MSG+, serving as a companion to the traditional Knicks telecast on MSG Network.

The simulcasts will include MSG Networks' sports betting talent and other special guests providing game commentary and analysis through the sports betting lens, as well as dedicated sports-betting graphics and production elements that will be different from the main telecast. The simulcast will be produced by a separate production crew from a separate control room.

Bet-A-Palooza week features a mix of talent from each of the network's sports betting shows - The Bettor Half *Hour, The Betting Exchange and Odds with Ends . Each night, Alex Monaco, Katie Mox, Jeff Johnson and former Jets safety Erik Coleman host live betting shows that dive into the latest Super Bowl trends, game odds, prop bets and recent action from around the NBA. Former Giants teammates and Super Bowl Champions Mathias Kiwanuka and David Tyree and sports betting experts Minty Bets, Alex Glaze and Sean Little will make appearances throughout the week as well. The shows will air on MSG Network at 7:30 p.m. ET on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, with Thursday's show airing at 8:30 p.m. ET.

To cap off the week, Kiwanuka, Tyree, Coleman and Little will host a Super Bowl pregame show at 8:00 p.m. ET on Saturday, February 12th, where they will give their top picks and break down the latest betting storylines around the game.

All programming will also be available on MSG GO, the network's live streaming and video on demand platform. Following this week, MSG Networks will continue to air The Bettor Half *Hour and The Betting Exchange every Monday through Thursday, airing at 5:00 p.m. ET and 5:30 p.m. ET respectively.
