FanDuel promo code unlocks $150 in bonus bets for NBA betting, other Friday sports

Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (3) shoots during the second half of Game 5 in a first-round NBA basketball playoff series against the Memphis Grizzlies Wednesday, April 26, 2023, in Memphis, Tenn.

Friday’s FanDuel promo code gives new users $150 in bonus bets as soon as they place a small qualifying wager. New users can simply place a $5 cash bet on any games this weekend -- NBA, NHL, MLB, etc. -- to trigger this offer and get $150 in bonus bets from FanDuel. This FanDuel promo code is available in every FanDuel Sportsbook state, including Illinois.

Just use the link below to get started.

Lots of new customer offers mention some kind of “first bet on the house” or “first bet insurance” where users will get their stake back if their first bet settles as a loss. These are all good offers, but do not actually give users bonus bets until their wager settles as a loss. This FanDuel promo code gives new users $150 in bonus bet regardless of how their first wager settles.

FanDuel bonus bets are like a credit in which you keep any profits, but not the bonus itself. So let’s say you put $10 in bonus bets on the Florida Panthers at +160 against the Boston Bruins. If it wins, you’d profit $16 in cash ($10 x 1.6) but you wouldn’t keep the $10 bonus bet.

FanDuel ‘bet $5, get $150′ promotion

This promotion is structured a bit differently from the standard new customer offer. As opposed to most sportsbook’s welcome offers, which hinge on bonus bets as a kind of first bet insurance, this promotion gives new users $150 in bonus bets regardless of the status of their first wager.

Critically, only real-money wagers will qualify for this promotion and any bets placed using credits will not trigger this offer. This promotion doesn’t require a promo code so new users can easily claim this offer by simply click the module below and inputting the relevant information.

If a new customer placed a $100 cash wager on the Grizzlies at +170 against the Lakers and the Grizz win, the user will get their stake back, pocket $170 and collect $150 in bonus bets. However, if the user places a bonus bet wager on the Grizz at the same odds, and Memphis wins, the user will collect $170 in profit but will not get their stake returned as bonus bets are only valid for one wager.

This offer is currently live in every FanDuel state and is exclusive to new customers who are at least 21 years old and physically present in a legal FanDuel state. You don’t have to live in a legal betting state to sign up,

How to use the FanDuel promo on Friday

Memphis Grizzlies vs. Los Angeles Lakers

The Grizzlies take on the Lakers in the Crypto.com Arena in a potential close-out game for LA.

The Lakers looked very slow in Game 5 as the Grizzlies jumped out to a 14-point lead and kept the gas pedal down throughout. Desmond Bane and Ja Morant both had over 30 points and 10 rebounds a piece.

Both teams struggled from three, though the Lakers shot an abysmal 25.6 percent from deep and the Grizzlies shot 35 percent. Notably, Memphis dominated the key and notched 56 points in the paint.

Anthony Davis has put up an incredible 31 points and 19 boards but it wasn’t enough as the Lakers weren’t able to find any additional offense.

As has been the case throughout the series, the first quarter will tell the story of the game. If LeBron and the Lakers come out swinging, they’ll likely stay competitive throughout the whole game and have a chance to close out at home.

The winner of the first quarter is 5-0 in this series. The two Grizzlies wins at home were marked by two impressive offensive performances from Memphis, winning both quarters by double-digits.

The LA crowd will be raucous and eager for a victory in this close-out game, which will be a factor especially late in the game.

Much like the rest of the series, Game 6 will be determined in the first quarter.

For player props, Jaren Jackson Jr. is a good option for points and rebounds in this one as he’s had a solid series but his p+r are priced a little lower.

The Lakers have some good options for player props as well. Back LeBron to go over on rebounds on Friday night as Anthony Davis and James have both been excellent on the glass.

Overall, the Lakers are 4.5-point favorites at home with the total at 220. The crowd in LA will be ready for a victory, look for the Lakers to win the first quarter and take this game at home to close out the series against Memphis.
