    The May 2018 Supreme Court opinion on MURPHY v. NATIONAL COLLEGIATE ATHLETIC ASSN., which decided the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PAPSA) was unconstitutional cleared a path for the evolution of fully legalized sports betting in the United States. A vast array of stakeholders, many who had been waiting years (if not decades), were poised to move forward on this highly anticipated economic bonanza. potential revenue from licensing in the league(s), data feeds, streaming rights, partnerships, and fan engagement have been studied for a while. The betting markets themselves will be completely transformed over the next 5-10 years. According to Price Waterhouse Cooper 2019 Sports Outlook, “gone are the days when sports betting was an outlawed industry run by bookies operating in society’s shadow”. (PWC 2019) They will move from Las Vegas Sportsbooks, offshore online betting sites, and illegal bookmakers to markets that resemble OTC and exchange-based financial products and commodities. For this to happen though, two currently nonexistent conditions must be satisfied: there must be a liquid secondary market for wagers, which itself will require the traditional stigma associated with gambling to dissipate. Focusing on the NBA Futures market, we use multiple data sources to explore probabilities for winning the NBA title, Eastern and Western conferences, six divisions, as well as each team making/missing the playoffs, the combined with win totals, and the pre-draft lottery odds for the 2019 NBA Draft in the first, exploratory, step of attempting to create the model for a sports-betting liquid secondary market. We feel that liquidity, with the ability to exit a wager before event completion, could potentially open a plethora of dynamic hedging opportunities broader than bookmaking. Proposed market mechanics, as well as how market dynamics would change by using financial asset pricing in combination with some of the current markets’ principles are covered.
