Regulations in North Carolina permit gamblers to place bets on collegiate player props. This implies that wagers on predictions such as the number of points or rebounds a particular player would total throughout a game are accepted. Remarkably, there is a push in numerous jurisdictions to outlaw collegiate prop betting. At the NCAA’s suggestion, Ohio’s sports betting authority recently decided to outlaw collegiate prop betting. This month, Maryland’s sports betting authority requested that operators cease providing prop bets on college players as of March 1, following Ohio’s example. One of the most anticipated college athletic competitions, March Madness, is approaching and opponents of collegiate player prop betting contend that it unnecessarily exposes athletes to harassment from bettors on social media or in person. However, North Carolina will permit prop wagering on college players for the time being.

Regulations pertaining to sports betting in North Carolina permit sports betting companies to take wagers on the NFL Draft, which starts on April 25. Caesars is among the operators currently offering NFL Draft props in other states. Caesars is taking bets on who will be the first pick of the NFL Draft with USC’s Caleb Williams the -1400 favorite to be selected first overall. North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye and LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels have the second-shortest odds (+800) to be the No. 1 overall pick.

You can find all of the permitted wagers in North Carolina available at online sportsbooks on the North Carolina lottery’s sports-betting focused website, NCGaming.gov.
