Exclusively available for new DraftKings customers, this offer is a highly efficient way to dive into today’s college basketball odds. By placing a $5 qualifying wager on any market with consensus odds of -500 or longer, you position yourself for a massive reward. However, we put a lot of stock in making smart initial reads because this bonus is not guaranteed; your first wager must be a winning bet to trigger the payout. Finding the right situational spot on the board is critical to securing the bonus.

If your qualifying bet grades as a winner, DraftKings instantly credits your account with $200 in bonus bets, distributed as eight separate $25 bonus bet tokens. This segmented structure is a dream for bettors, giving you the flexibility to spread your exposure across multiple college basketball games over the coming week rather than sinking it all into a single longshot. Just remember to deploy your capital efficiently, as these bonus bets will officially expire seven days after issuance.

Best Way to Use DraftKings Bonus on NCAA Games Today

Here are the spreads and totals for today’s premier college basketball matchups available on the board:

Matchup Spread Total (O/U) Moneyline
#10 St. John’s @ #17 Kansas SJU -3.5 (-108) / KU +3.5 (-112) 144.5 (O -108 / U -112) SJU -166 / KU +140
#23 Tennessee @ #9 Virginia TENN -1.5 (+102) / UVA +1.5 (-122) 137.5 (O -108 / U -112) TENN -118 / UVA -102

Today’s schedule features a pair of high-leverage Second Round clashes. At 5:15 p.m. ET, the #5 seed St. John’s Red Storm face the #4 seeded Kansas Jayhawks. St. John’s forward Zuby Ejiofor transferred from Kansas after Bill Self revamped his frontcourt. Now the reigning Big East Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year, Ejiofor is coming off a double-double (11 rebounds, 4 blocks) and anchors Rick Pitino’s transfer-heavy squad. He’ll be challenged by Kansas freshman guard Darryn Peterson, a projected top NBA pick who has a ton of talent and scoring ability.

At 6:10 p.m. ET, the #23 Tennessee Volunteers battle the #9 Virginia Cavaliers. First-year UVA coach Ryan Odom leans on transfer guard Jacari White, who exploded for 26 points off the bench on 83.3% shooting (6-of-8 from deep) against Wright State. Tennessee counters with Ja’Kobi Gillespie, who dropped 29 points and 9 assists in the opening round against Miami (Ohio), tying a school tournament record for threes. We’ve seen time and time again that elite guard play dictates the pace, setting up a fascinating stylistic clash against Virginia’s stout defense.

Ryan Fox wins first career major at 2026 Open Championship

CNN
(CNN) — Ryan Fox took home the Claret Jug after draining a birdie putt on the 18th hole to win the 2026 Open Championship at Royal Birkdale on Sunday.The 39-year-old Fox beat out American Cameron Young to win his first career major title, becoming only the third New Zealander to win a men’s major golf championship.Fox came into the final hole tied with Young, after the 29-year-old finished the round at 6-under 64 a few hours before.The Kiwi powered his drive into the middle of the fairway and then set up the biggest putt of his golf career so far with an approach shot that landed about 12 feet from the pin.As the putt fell into the hole, the crowd in Southport, England, gave Fox a rousing ovation as he raised both arms in the air to celebrate the achievement.The putt capped off four birdies in the last six holes for Fox.Fox was at a loss for words while speaking to the NBC Sports broadcast after the win.“I don’t really know what to think at the moment. I’ve got a lot of people to thank. First of all, my family. My wife and kids are in Florida at the moment. I spoke to my kids last night and they said, bring back a trophy. I think that’s a pretty cool one to bring back for them,” Fox said. “My family back in New Zealand and all my supporters back there. I know it’s been a long night for them, but I’m glad it was worthwhile.”Fox finished with a 2-under 68 after trailing Sam Burns, who held a two-stroke lead coming into Sunday’s final round.Fox also becomes the third-oldest major winner in the last 10 years, trailing only Phil Mickelson at the 2021 PGA Championship and Tiger Woods at the 2019 Masters.“Just an unbelievable week. The golf course was fantastic. The English weather was fantastic. You guys out there were fantastic. The support was amazing. This is pretty cool. I’m sorry if I’ve forgotten anyone, but thank you very much,” Fox added.It is another disappointment for Young, who is still looking for his first career major title despite winning The Players earlier this year. Young finished one shot back of the win at the 2022 Open Championship at St. Andrews and held the lead heading into the final round at the Masters back in April.It is also another let down for Burns, another golfer looking for his maiden major win.The Louisiana State University alum came into the round ahead by two strokes but quickly lost it and went birdie-free for the final 12 holes.“(Fox) is a well-earned champion and hats off to him,” Burns said. “He did what he needed to do down the stretch and ultimately just came up a couple short today.”Defending champion Scottie Scheffler stayed within striking range throughout the round, but wound up with a 3-under 67 on Sunday to finish tied for fourth with Tommy Fleetwood.After a drama-filled tournament, Bryson DeChambeau finished tied for 14th while Rory McIlroy, who has been critical of the LIV Golfer all tournament long, ended tied for 40th.Fox’s journey to first major winFox’s road to his first career major title wasn’t the easiest. It came with many bumps and U-turns.While speaking to CNN’s Don Riddell ahead of the Desert Classic in Dubai in early 2025, Fox opened up about his mental health issues, including being an older rookie after spending years on the DP World Tour and the PGA Tour of Australia.“I think being a rookie at 37 years old on the PGA Tour was, I probably wasn’t quite prepared for what that was again,” Fox told CNN.“I knew all the golf courses, knew how to travel work, knew where to stay, and everything was new on the PGA Tour, and that was probably a shock to the system more than anything.”Fox comes from a lineage of athletes within his family tree, including his father, Grant Fox, who was a main kicker for the New Zealand national rugby team and his grandfather, Merv Wallace, a former New Zealand cricketer who later coached the national team.Fox spoke out on the “pressure” a golfer faces, mentioning the 2024 death of former PGA Tour golfer Grayson Murray, whose parents later confirmed it was death by suicide.“It can be a stressful life. It’s all performance-based. There’s a lot of pressure on – Looking after your mental health is really, really important, and having people to talk to and all of that is part of that,” Fox said.“It’s a shame it got to that point with Grayson that, you know, we’ve had to have those, those pretty tough conversations now, but it will help – hopefully it helps someone else in a similar situation going forward because we certainly don’t want to see it again.”CNN’s Kyle Tatelbaum and Don Riddell contributed to this reporting This write has been updated with additional reporting The-CNN-Wire™ & © 2026 Cable News Network, Inc., a Warner Bros.
