The state of Texas does not have sportsbooks operating within its borders as of now following the U.S. Supreme Court throwing out decades of prohibition against the activity. The state does not even have casinos outside of Tribal-run establishments. Texas is not particularly friendly towards gambling and is unlikely to allow sportsbooks to open shop there. Residents will rely on sports betting sites based outside of the state.
Betting on the NBA All Star Weekend events including the Slam Dunk Contest, Three-Point Shooting and Skills Contests, as well as the All Star Game between both conferences will be heavy throughout Texas.
The state has two NBA franchises. The Dallas Mavericks are widely regarded as having one of the best fan bases.
They have the second best attendance rate after the Philadelphia Sixers. This is despite their record, six games under the .500 mark heading into the All Star break.
The Rockets ranked 16th and owned a much better record than the Mavs to close out the first half of the season (33-24).
Sites like YouWager do not ask for your social security number, do not report your winnings to government agencies and allow those 18 and up to place bets.
