The Favorites is back and this time we're taking a higher level look at the always murky waters of sports betting legalization in America! Action Network duo Stuckey & Brandon Kravitz welcome Joe Maloney, President of the Sports Betting Alliance, for a conversation on all things gaming and gambling. Maloney discusses the difficulties of certain news cycles and headlines featuring athlete betting scandals, increased state taxes surrounding sports wagering, the prediction market wave impact on legal sportsbooks, safeguards in place for gambling addiction and more. Plus, the San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder have a pivotal Game 5 tonight, so the squad plant's their flag with the help of Evan Abrams.
